I don't see my comments addressed. If you want me to take
this work, please address the following comments:

- Name install directory kselftest. It should work with the
the use-case.

make INSTALL_PATH=/tmp make install
The install directory should be /tmp/kselftest

- Flatten the directory with all tests under /tmp/kselftest

I am wasting lot of time because you don't fully address my
comments and send patches that dont' work correctly. Please
make sure your patches don't generate work for me.

thanks,
