when I invoke 'git status' on the master branch of my local git repository
(cloned from stable/linux.git), which I have used to compile several kernels,
it lists two untracked files:

	tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf
	tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/bpf_helper_defs.h

'git status' doesn't complain about these files with v5.11, and I can't get rid
of them by 'make clean' with v5.11 or v5.12-rc1/rc2. So I used 'git bisect' and
found that this is caused by commit fc6b48f692f89cc48bfb7fd1aa65454dfe9b2d77,
which links to this thread.

Looking at the diff it's obvious because of the change in the .gitignore file,
but I don't know why these files are there and I have never touched anything in
the 'tools' directory.

Can I savely delete the files? Do I even have to delete them before I compile
v5.12-rcX?

Thanks,
Viktor
