[ovs-dev] [PATCH 07/20] compat: Fix compiler headers

Since Linux kernel upstream commit d15155824c50
("linux/compiler.h: Split into compiler.h and compiler_types.h") this
error check for the gcc compiler header is no longer valid.  Remove
so that openvswitch builds for linux kernels 4.14.8 and since.
