The riscv selftests (which were modeled after the arm64 selftests) are improperly declaring the "emit_tests" target to depend upon the "all" target. This approach, when combined with commit 9fc96c7c19df ("selftests: error out if kernel header files are not yet built"), has caused build failures [1] on arm64, and is likely to cause similar failures for riscv. To fix this, simply remove the unnecessary "all" dependency from the emit_tests target. The dependency is still effectively honored, because again, invocation is via "install", which also depends upon "all". An alternative approach would be to harden the emit_tests target so that it can depend upon "all", but that's a lot more complicated and hard to get right, and doesn't seem worth it, especially given that emit_tests should probably not be overridden at all.
