When a selftest does not compile, abort the whole build. We want to know
that we broke selftests by a backport.
This commit is forward ported from RHEL 8. It could not have been forward
ported to ARK: with rebases to the upstream the bpf selftests break all the
time. Now it's the first opportunity when we can take it.
You can certainly apply this to ARK. But be warned that it can break
ARK build at the next rebase if upstream did not improve its handling
of bpf selftests. If that happens, this patch will have to be reverted.
The kernel maintainers may prefer this patch to be skipped. Up to them.
