When the small things from Muhammad and Reinette addressed, this seems 
okay.

Thanks for the solution.


I'm still left to wonder if the x86 selftest is supposed to clobber 
CFLAGS? It seems that problem is orthogonal to this cpuid/resctrl problem.
I mean this question from the perspective of coherency in the entire 
kselftest framework, lib.mk seems to want to adjust CFLAGS but those
changes will get clobbered in the case of x86 selftest.
