Wouldn't it be great if the kselftest build system used something like
meson and could work around these little issues without breaking the
whole build ? :(

Does anyone else think this?

Every time I try to build kselftsts I just ignore all the errors the
fly by because the one bit I wanted did build properly anyhow.
