Commit 68ca0fd272da ("selftest/lkdtm: Don't pollute 'git status'")
introduced patterns for git to ignore files generated in
tools/testing/selftests/lkdtm/

Use local .gitignore file instead of using the root one.

I will apply it for next rc.

Thanks. I should have noticed the problem in the previous version.
It slipped by me. :(


My fault, I didn't even know we could have .gitignore in subdirectories.
