Hi,

This series fixes incorrect kernel header search path in kernel
selftests.

Near the end of the series, a few changes are not tagged as "Fixes"
because the current behavior is to rely on the kernel sources uapi files
rather than on the installed kernel header files. Nevertheless, those
are updated for consistency.

There are situations where "../../../../include/" was added to -I search
path, which is bogus for userspace tests and caused issues with types.h.
Those are removed.


Thanks again for taking care of this. I did out of tree build testing on
x86 on linux-kselftest next with these patches below. I haven't seen
any problems introduced by the patch set.

   selftests: dma: Fix incorrect kernel headers search path
This one needs a change and I will send a patch on top of yours.
Even with that this test depends on unexported header from the
repo and won't build out of tree. This is not related to your
change.

   selftests: mount_setattr: Fix incorrect kernel headers search path
This one fails to build with our without patch - an existing error.

I have to do cross-build tests on arm64 and other arch patches still.
This will happen later this week.

arm64, s390 patches look good.

thanks,
