It think would be possible but I see two issues:

1) Tests can be run in a myriad ways. Some of them (`make run_tests`,
`run_kselftest.sh`) use runner.sh which would be the place to set
environment variables for a test. However it's also possible to run
tests directly:

tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/bonding# ./dev_addr_lists.sh

In that case, there's nothing to automatically set an environment
variable for the test.

I think that could be addressed, for example by putting the content of
TEST_INCLUDES in a file and having the test read it itself, but ...

2)
As can be seen in the dsa case and in the bonding and team cases after
patch 6, the relationship between the files listed in TEST_INCLUDES and
the files sourced in a test is not 1:1. So automatically sourcing all
files listed in TEST_INCLUDES is not generally applicable.

Given these two points, I'm inclined to stick with the current approach.
What do you think?
