Add a new make target to install to install kernel selftests.
This new target will build and install selftests. kselftest
target now depends on kselftest_install and runs the generated
kselftest script to reduce duplicate work and for common look
and feel when running tests.

make kselftest_target:
-- exports kselftest INSTALL_KSFT_PATH
   default $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/kselftest/$(KERNELRELEASE)
-- exports INSTALL_KSFT_PATH
-- runs selftests make install target

Hi Marek,

Could you please Ack this patch, if this version looks good,
so I can take this through ksefltest tree.
Hi Shuah,

I posted what I think is a better approach last week. It's less code and less
repetition, and installs the majority of tests this series missed - ie. the
powerpc ones.

Please at least respond to it before you put this series into next.

Michael,

I didn't get a chance to review your patches yet. I plan to
review and give you feedback by end of this week. 
Thanks. My week ends quite soon (.au time zone), so early next week is fine.
This patch is needed in any case for either approach.
The version in my series is slightly different, but probably similar enough. I
CC'ed Michal on my series also.

cheers
