[PATCH 0/1] selftests: error out if kernel header files are not yet built

Hi,

This is somewhat related to the 11-patch series that I just posted [1],
but I hadn't originally planned to go this far with it. But since David
Hildenbrand asked if we could warn in this case [2], here it is.

It turns out that automatically doing the "make headers" correctly is
much harder than just warning, so I stopped at that point. It works well,
though.
