Yes, kselftest-list.txt is created on the fly by make install.

As such step could be constrained to the relevant selftests directories
(see the above code snippet), and a 'make' step is required anyway to
run the tests, what about using directly such target?

In any case I don't mean to block this patch, let me apply it...
