Commit b2d35fa5fc80 ("selftests: add headers_install to lib.mk")
introduced a requirement that Makefiles more than one level below the
selftests directory need to define top_srcdir, but it didn't update
any of the powerpc Makefiles.

This broke building all the powerpc selftests with eg:

  make[1]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc'
  BUILD_TARGET=/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment; mkdir -p $BUILD_TARGET; make OUTPUT=$BUILD_TARGET -k -C alignment all
  make[2]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment'
  ../../lib.mk:20: ../../../../scripts/subarch.include: No such file or directory
  make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'.
  make[2]: Failed to remake makefile '../../../../scripts/subarch.include'.
  Makefile:38: recipe for target 'alignment' failed

Fix it by setting top_srcdir in the affected Makefiles.

The alignment_handler is documented to only work on Power8/Power9, but
we can make it run on older CPUs by guarding more of the tests with
feature checks.

Currently the alignment_handler test prints "Can't open /dev/fb0"
about 80 times per run, which is a little annoying.

Refactor it to check earlier if it can open /dev/fb0 and skip if not,
this results in each test printing something like:

  test: test_alignment_handler_vsx_206
  tags: git_version:v4.18-rc3-134-gfb21a48904aa
  [SKIP] Test skipped on line 291
  skip: test_alignment_handler_vsx_206

This logic was shared between multiple tests, but now that we have
removed all but one of them we can just move it into that test.

Paste on POWER9 only works to accelerators and not on real memory. So
these tests just generate a SIGILL.

So just delete them.

This is a test of the ISA 3.0 "copy" instruction. That instruction has
an L field, which if set to 1 specifies that "the instruction
identifies the beginning of a move group" (pp 858). That's also
referred to as "copy first" vs "copy".

In ISA 3.0B the copy instruction does not have an L field, and the
corresponding bit in the instruction must be set to 1.

This test is generating a "copy" instruction, not a "copy first", and
so on Power9 (which implements 3.0B), this results in an illegal
instruction.

So just drop the test entirely. We still have copy_first_unaligned to
test the "copy first" behaviour.

<title>selftests/powerpc: Fix to use ucontext_t instead of struct ucontext</title>

With glibc 2.26 'struct ucontext' is removed to improve POSIX
compliance, which breaks powerpc/alignment_handler selftest. Fix the
test by using ucontext_t. Tested on ppc, works with older glibc
versions as well.

Fixes the following:
  alignment_handler.c: In function ‘sighandler’:
  alignment_handler.c:68:5: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct ucontext’
    ucp-&gt;uc_mcontext.gp_regs[PT_NIP] += 4;

<title>selftests: remove duplicated all and clean target</title>

Currently, kselftest use TEST_PROGS, TEST_PROGS_EXTENDED, TEST_FILES to
indicate the test program, extended test program and test files. It is
easy to understand the purpose of these files. But mix of compiled and
uncompiled files lead to duplicated "all" and "clean" targets.

In order to remove the duplicated targets, introduce TEST_GEN_PROGS,
TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED, TEST_GEN_FILES to indicate the compiled
objects.

Also, the later patch will make use of TEST_GEN_XXX to redirect these
files to output directory indicated by KBUILD_OUTPUT or O.

And add this changes to "Contributing new tests(details)" of
Documentation/kselftest.txt.
