The feature test to detect the availability of zlib in bpftool's Makefile does not bring much. The library is not optional: it may or may not be required along libbfd for disassembling instructions, but in any case it is necessary to build feature.o or even libbpf, on which bpftool depends. If we remove the feature test, we lose the nicely formatted error message, but we get a compiler error about "zlib.h: No such file or directory", which is equally informative. Let's get rid of the test.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
