Thanks for review.
Do you mean check this issue in other directory? I plan to do it.
Currently, the x86/Makefile do not use the TEST_GEN_XXX, so
if we found a better fix, we could convert x86/Makefile later.

I don't think this is a good fix, it only fixes this one Makefile, and
it's quite verbose. But if it really bothers Andy then it would be OK as
a stop-gap for 4.11.

it's quite verbose. But if it really bothers Andy then it would be OK as
a stop-gap for 4.11.
