so.. as it happens I recently built these things as stand-alone, and
then you ver much end up using the system headers.

Also see 20230922205449.808782861@xxxxxxxxxxxxx where I add more of
this.

Specifically, if one does:

cd tools/testing/selftests/futex/functional; make

You don't get kernel headers and stuff does not build.

So no, I don't think this is superfluous.
