1/4: reworked v2.

2/4: fix a flaw I noticed when I was working on this series

3/4: maybe useful for 4/4 and in some other places

4/4: v2. compile as many headers as possible.


Changes in v2:
 - Add CONFIG_CPU_{BIG,LITTLE}_ENDIAN guard to avoid build error
 - Use 'header-test-' instead of 'no-header-test'
 - Avoid weird 'find' warning when cleaning
  - New patch
  - New patch
  - Add everything to test coverage, and exclude broken ones
  - Rename 'Makefile' to 'Kbuild'
  - Add CONFIG_KERNEL_HEADER_TEST option

  kbuild: compile-test UAPI headers to ensure they are self-contained
  kbuild: do not create wrappers for header-test-y
  kbuild: support header-test-pattern-y
  kbuild: compile-test kernel headers to ensure they are self-contained
[responding here because I didn't receive the actual patch]

This looks like it's doing what it's supposed to, but I ran into a bunch
of build fails with CONFIG_OF=n. Sent a fix to one [1], but stopped at
the next. Looks like you'll have to exclude more. And I'm pretty sure
we'll uncover more configurations where this will fail.
Thanks for testing.

I did more compile-tests, and excluded more headers in v3.

Thanks.
