[PATCH net] selftests: net: build net/lib dependency in all target

[Bui Quang Minh]

Currently, we only build net/lib dependency in install target. This
commit moves that to all target so that net/lib is included in in-tree
build and run_tests.

Hi,

The above describes what is being done.
I think it would be good to also describe why.

Hi,

Currently, when building net related selftests, we need to

     make install

so that the net/lib is compiled. In case we do

     make

or

     make run_tests

the net/lib is not compiled. So I move the INSTALL_DEP_TARGETS which is 
net/lib if the selftests is net related to all. As a result, all 
make/make install/make run_tests will have the net/lib compiled.

Thanks,
Quang Minh.

Thanks for the explanation, it is much appreciated.

I think it would be good to include something along those lines
in the commit message of the patch.

Please note, that if you post a v2, before doing so you should allow 24h to
elapse since the posting of v1.

Thanks for your review and for pointing me the document.
