Thanks for the patches!

typo in subject/oneline, and the `:` above can be dropped.

Andrew reported similar failures throughout selftests:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20211005222739.2491124-1-adelg@xxxxxxxxxx/

Both patches touch the same part of tools/testing/selftests/lib.mk.
This approach looks cleaner to me, but it should reconcile the changes
to tools/testing/selftests/filesystems/binderfs/Makefile that Andrew
made in the link above.
