Add a new devtest make target to enable developer testing. This
new target does full build (make all) and then runs selftests.

I agree with Sam that the name is rather ambiguous, but I can't suggest
a better alternative right now.

Does kselftest or kern_selftest sound better?

It does sound better to me than dev(ice)test, but I'm not a native
English speaker. Greg?

Either is fine with me, but I don't think we have '_' as any make target
today, so perhaps "kselftest" is best?

thanks,

Patch v2 is on its way. kselftest is the new target. It does sound lot
better than devtest :)
