Subject: [GIT PULL] Kselftest next update for Linux 5.10-rc1

Hi Linus,

Please pull the following Kselftest next update for Linux 5.10-rc1

This kselftest update for Linux 5.10-rc1 consists of enhancements to

-- speed up headers_install done during selftest build
-- add generic make nesting support
-- add support to select individual tests:
    - Selftests build/install generates run_kselftest.sh script to run
      selftests on a target system. Currently the script doesn't have
      support for selecting individual tests. Add support for it.

      With this enhancement, user can select test collections (or tests)
      individually. e.g:

      run_kselftest.sh -c seccomp -t timers:posix_timers -t timers:nanosleep

      Additionally adds a way to list all known tests with "-l", usage
      with "-h", and perform a dry run without running tests with "-n".

diff is attached.

thanks,
-- Shuah
