Subject: [PATCH 0/3] selfttests: timers ksft_ stubs handling changes

This patch series consists of changes to:

Move ksft_ stubs from individual tests into kselftest_stubs.h and change
tests to include it.

Fix posix_timers and freq-step tests to run without ksft_ framework.

This is in preparation to convert timers tests to ksft TAP 13 format.

Question for John Stultz:

The conversion work will be easier without the requirement to be able to
build and run these tests without ksft_ framework. So far the stubs are
simpler. It is might be necessary to ifdef some code paths to have sane
output for both KTEST and !KTEST cases.

Would it be easier to pull in kselftest.h into timers external repo
(if one still exists). This is based on the observation that newer
timer tests don't support !KTEST case e.g: posix_timers and freq-step.

Please review and let me know how you would like me to proceed with the
conversion. I am looking for answer to how important is it to continue to
support !KTEST case.
