Your second -I pulls the unexported kernel headers in, userspace
programs shouldn't include unexported kernel headers.

It breaks the build on powerpc with eg:

  powerpc64le-linux-gnu-gcc -g -I../../../../usr/include/ -I../../../../include    close_range_test.c  -o /output/kselftest/core/close_range_test
  In file included from /usr/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/include/bits/fcntl-linux.h:346,
                   from /usr/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/include/bits/fcntl.h:62,
                   from /usr/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/include/fcntl.h:35,
                   from close_range_test.c:5:
  ../../../../include/linux/falloc.h:13:2: error: unknown type name '__s16'
    __s16  l_type;
    ^~~~~


Did you do that on purpose or just copy it from one of the other
Makefiles? :)

If you're just wanting to get the syscall number when the headers
haven't been exported, I think the best solution is to do eg:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/core/close_range_test.c b/tools/testing/selftests/core/close_range_test.c
index d6e6079d3d53..34c6f02f25de 100644
