No. Much older. I tested till 4.0.6 and the error was still there.
60df4642a835 ("tools selftests: Fix 'clean' target with make 3.81") solved
the problem.
should i submit it for stable 4.0.9 or you will add it?

After this, kselftest had some more problem like:
1) kcmp_test.c:13:24: fatal error: linux/kcmp.h: No such file or directory
2) memfd_test.c:26:17: error: â__NR_memfd_createâ undeclared (first use
in this function)
3) hugetlbfstest: hugetlbfstest.c:60: open_file: Assertion `fd > 2' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

I will see if something is already there in Linus tree regarding these.
