When building the vm selftests using clang, some errors are seen due to having headers in the compilation command: clang -Wall -I ../../../../usr/include -no-pie gup_test.c ../../../../mm/gup_test.h -lrt -lpthread -o .../tools/testing/selftests/vm/gup_test clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files make[1]: *** [../lib.mk:146: .../tools/testing/selftests/vm/gup_test] Error 1 Rework to add the header files to LOCAL_HDRS before including ../lib.mk, since the dependency is evaluated in '$(OUTPUT)/%:%.c $(LOCAL_HDRS)' in file lib.mk.
