selftests: default to host arch for LLVM builds
Align the behavior for gcc and clang builds by interpreting unset
`ARCH` and `CROSS_COMPILE` variables in `LLVM` builds as a sign that the
user wants to build for the host architecture.
This patch preserves the properties that setting the `ARCH` variable to an
unknown value will trigger an error that complains about insufficient
information, and that a set `CROSS_COMPILE` variable will override the
target triple that is determined based on presence/absence of `ARCH`.
When compiling with clang, i.e., `LLVM` is set, an unset `ARCH` variable in
combination with an unset `CROSS_COMPILE` variable, i.e., compiling for
the host architecture, leads to compilation failures since `lib.mk` can
not determine the clang target triple. In this case, the following error
message is displayed for each subsystem that does not set `ARCH` in its
own Makefile before including `lib.mk` (lines wrapped at 75 chrs):
make[1]: Entering directory '/mnt/build/linux/tools/testing/selftests/
sysctl'
../lib.mk:33: *** Specify CROSS_COMPILE or add '--target=' option to
lib.mk. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/mnt/build/linux/tools/testing/selftests/
sysctl'
In the same scenario a gcc build would default to the host architecture,
i.e., it would use plain `gcc`.
