Subject: [PATCH] radix tree test suite: fix mapshift build target

The following commit

  commit c6ce3e2fe3da ("radix tree test suite: Add config option for map
  shift")

Introduced a phony makefile target called 'mapshift' that ends up
generating the file generated/map-shift.h.  This phony target was then
added as a dependency of the top level 'targets' build target, which is
what is run when you go to tools/testing/radix-tree and just type 'make'.

Unfortunately, this phony target doesn't actually work as a dependency, so
you end up getting:

$ make
make: *** No rule to make target 'generated/map-shift.h', needed by 'main.o'.  Stop.
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Fix this by making the file generated/map-shift.h our real makefile target,
and add this a dependency of the top level build target.

This allows the radix tree test suite that shipped with v4.16 build and
run successfully.

The radix tree test suite in the current linux/master during the v4.17
merge window is broken, as I've reported here:

https://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=152356678901014&w=2

But this patch is necessary to even get to that breakage.

I've sent this to Matthew twice with no response, so Andrew, I'm trying
you next.
