Okay, I see, so the fix here wouldn't be to remove the headers from
the commandline, we should just prepend them with `-l`.

I specifically passed TARGETS=futex because I want to point out a
specific example where this is in an issue as there are other errors I
see when I build all of selftests with LLVM=1. But to answer your
question, no, I do not think you are expected to always pass TARGETS.

When I run (without this patch)

$ make -C tools/testing/selftests LLVM=1
 I get a bunch of errors as well ranging from:
- clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output
files <-- the specific one I'm trying to fix
- clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-pie'
[-Wunused-command-line-argument]
- include/x86_64/processor.h:344:25: warning: variable 'xmm7' is
uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]

                return (unsigned long)xmm7;
- fuse_mnt.c:17:10: fatal error: 'fuse.h' file not found

#include <fuse.h>

         ^~~~~~~~

However with the patch applied, I no longer see any "clang: error:
cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files", meaning that
I fixed one class of errors when building with LLVM=1.

Do you see a clean build currently when building selftests with
LLVM=1? I'm not arguing that this patch fixes *all* the errors seen,
but it at least fixes one class of them. Although, it seems I went
about fixing it in the wrong manner. I can respin this to prepend -l
before header includes to get rid of the "clang: error: cannot specify
-o when generating multiple output files" errors.

Like you mentioned above, it seems a better way to about this would be
to prepend -I before the includes. I'll go ahead and send a new patch
to do that.
