[PATCH v2 4/4] Makefile: add headers to kselftest targets

From: Guillaume Tucker
Date: Tue Jul 12 2022 - 04:30:12 EST


Add headers as a dependency to kselftest targets so that they can be
run directly from the top of the tree. The kselftest Makefile used to
try to call headers_install "backwards" but failed due to the relative
path not being consistent.

Now we can either run this directly:

$ make O=build kselftest-all

or this:

$ make O=build headers
$ make O=build -C tools/testing/selftests all

The same commands work as well when building directly in the source
tree (no O=) or any arbitrary path (relative or absolute).
