[PATCH v2 0/6] enable O and KBUILD_OUTPUT for kselftest

[bamvor.zhangjian]

From: Bamvor Jian Zhang <bamvor.zhangjian@xxxxxxxxxx>

Here is my second version for enabling the KBUILD_OUTPUT for kselftest.
The first version could be found here[1]. I fix and test all the TARGET
in tools/testing/selftest/Makefile. For ppc, I test through fake target.

There are six patches in these series. And five of them clean up the
existing code. I split the clean up patches into five, hope it is easy
to review.

  selftests: remove duplicated all and clean target
  selftests: remove useless TEST_DIRS
a selftests: add pattern rules
A selftests: remove CROSS_COMPILE in dedicated Makefile
A selftests: add EXTRA_CLEAN for clean target
  selftests: enable O and KBUILD_OUTPUT

Notes:
  A: Ack by Michael.
  a: ack by Michael. Minor update after rebase.

In the first patch, I split the test files into two types:
TEST_GEN_XXX means such file is generated during compiling. TEST_XXX
means there is no need to compile before use. The main reason of this
is the enablement of KBUILD_OUTPUT only need to care about TEST_GEN_XXX.
I wanted to copy all the TEST_XXX with TEST_GEN_XXX, but I give up this
idea in the end. Because people may puzzle why copy the file before
installation.

Because of the introducing of TEST_GEN_XXX, I update the top-level
Makefile and lib.mk selftests directory. After introduce TEST_GEN_XXX, I
could remove all the unnecessary all and clean targets.

The second patch remove TEST_DIRS variable. And third patch add the
pattern for compiling the c sourc code. The fourth patch remove the
useless CROSS_COMPILE variable as it aleady exists in
"tools/testing/selftests/lib.mk".

Further more, The fifth patch add the EXTRA_CLEAN variable to clean up
the duplicated clean target

The last patch introduce the KBUILD_OUTPUT and O for kselftest instead
using the existing kbuild system because user may compile kselftest
directly (make -C tools/testing/selftests).

Changes:
1.  remove the useless *.o target in the following file suggested by
    Michael:
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/benchmarks/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/dscr/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/math/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/primitives/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/stringloops/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/syscalls/Makefile
    tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/Makefile

2.  remove the useless "all" and "clean" target in bpf and nsfs which
    are added after my previous patch.

3.  Improve the commit message.
