overflow: disable failing tests for older clang versions



Building the overflow kunit tests with clang-11 fails with:

$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch=arm --make_options LLVM=1 \
overflow
...
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __mulodi4
...

Clang 11 and earlier generate unwanted libcalls for signed output,
unsigned input.

Disable these tests for now, but should these become used in the kernel
we might consider that as justification for dropping clang-11 support.
Keep the clang-11 build alive a little bit longer.

Avoid -Wunused-function warnings via __maybe_unused. To test W=1:

$ make LLVM=1 -j128 defconfig
$ ./scripts/config -e KUNIT -e KUNIT_ALL
$ make LLVM=1 -j128 olddefconfig lib/overflow_kunit.o W=1
