[PATCH] tools: Add a selftests_run target

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp-l3A5Bk7waGM@public.gmane.org>

With it, you can do

$ make tools/selftests_run

from the toplevel kernel repo and it'll run all selftests. Don't forget
the -j.

OK. You can already do:

  $ make kselftest


Is this better for some reason?

cheers

No, I missed that there is even one in the top-level Makefile. And doing

make tools/help

shows only the "selftests" one. I should add kselftest to
tools/Makefile's help instead.

Thanks.
