Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] Create specific kconfig for kselftest

There is a discussion about improving the usability of kselftest by
creating test-specific kconfig in recent kernel Summit. The first
three versions could be found at [1], [2], [3].

Patch 1 keep test-specific kconfig fragments inside each selftest so
that merge_configs.sh could build up a kernel configuration that can
test the specific or all feature(s).

Patch 2 add config option(kselftest-merge) in make file as a
helper to merge all the test config dependecies to .config.

Changes since v3:
1.  move the target kselftest-mergeconfig from scripts/kconfig/Makfile
    to toplevel Makefile. And rename to kselftest-merge to avoid the
    conflict with "%config" target.

Changes since v2:
1.  Fix the misuse of objtree and srctree in the
    kselftest-mergeconfig target.

Changes since v1:
1.  Add kselftest-mergeconfig in scripts/kconfig/Makefile according
    to the suggestion from Michael.
