CFLAGS is not used during the compile step, so the system instead of
kernel headers are used. Fix this by using lib.mk's compile rules and
remove CFLAGS from the linking step.

Hmm. The changes don't match the change log. It odes more than just
removing LDFLAGS from compile step,

So why not just delete $(LDFLAGS)??

I can't take this patch the way it is. It breaks the following
use-case:
make O=/tmp/kselftest TARGETS=sync kselftest

oh, you are correct. I'm sorry.
I will re-spin the patch and make the changelog reflect the actual change
next time.

Oh, I've missed that use-case. Will fix that in the re-spin of the patch.
To fix this build issue when cross compiling
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/sync/Makefile
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/sync/Makefile
@@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ $(TEST_CUSTOM_PROGS): $(TESTS) $(OBJS)

The other issue that needs to be addressed somehow would be make the
build system do
headers_install or if that should be a prerequisite.
I've seen ways to install the headers: "make -C ../../../..
headers_install" if the headers
aren't there, in
tools/testing/selftests/gpio/Makefile
tools/testing/selftests/vm/Makefile
Is that the preferred way or should an update in
Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst be done to say do "make
headers_install" before
building kselftests?
