What is the reason to add another set of dependencies, please?

Both CONFIG_LIVEPATCH CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG are already mentioned in
tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/config

IMHO, the new check should read the dependencies
from the existing tools/testing/selftests/<test>/config file.

It somehow does not work here. I get:

tools/testing/selftests/livepatch # make run_tests 
grep: .config: No such file or directory
grep: .config: No such file or directory
grep: .config: No such file or directory
grep: .config: No such file or directory
../lib.mk:112: *** Missing required config flags: CONFIG_LIVEPATCH CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG.  Stop.


I run the livepatch tests the following way.

1. On my workstation, I build the kernel RPMs using

     make rpm-pkg

2. In qemu test system, I mount the build directory from the
   workstation and install both kernel and kernel-devel packages:

    rpm -ivh rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-6.12.0_default+-35.x86_64.rpm
    rpm -ivh rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-devel-6.12.0_default+-35.x86_64.rpm

   and reboot

3. In rebooted qemu test system, I mount once again the build
   directory from the workstation and run the tests:

     cd tools/testing/selftests/livepatch
     make run_tests


The "grep" errors come from the "scripts/config" command. For example:

   tools/testing/selftests/livepatch # /lib/modules/6.12.0-default+/build/scripts/config -s CONFIG_LIVEPATCH
   grep: .config: No such file or directory
   grep: .config: No such file or directory
   undef

It helps to define patch to the config file installed by the devel
package:

   tools/testing/selftests/livepatch # /lib/modules/6.12.0-default+/build/scripts/config --file /lib/modules/6.12.0-default+/config -s CONFIG_LIVEPATCH
   y


But I am not sure if this works when people run the "make" in the
original build directory on the workstation.
