kselftest_install?

This direction is OK to me.

BTW, I've found another path to make selftest in Makefile,
Actually you can do

make -C tools/ selftest

And there are selftest_install and selftest_clean targets (but
currently it has a bug and doesn't work, anyway)

I think we'd better do subdir make instead of adding these targets.
This means that "make kselftest*" should be an alias of "make -C tools/ selftest*"

Also, I'd like to request passing some options like as O=$(objtree)
so that we can make test kmodules in selftests.

Thank you,
