include/linux/compiler.h: fix Oops for Clang-compiled kernels

GCC unescapes escaped string section names while Clang does not. Because
__section uses the `#` stringification operator for the section name, it
doesn't need to be escaped.

This fixes an Oops observed in distro's that use systemd and not
net.core.bpf_jit_enable=1, when their kernels are compiled with Clang.
