Hi Anders,

Michael sent in a patch to fix the problem already. It is in linux-kselftest 
fixes
branch for 4.17-rc2

Classifying dnotify_test to TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED as Michael is the correct 
way
to handle this problem. It allows the test to be built and installed and it 
won't
be run in the main kselftest run.

thanks,
-- Shuah
