Commit 5f70bde26a48 ("selftests: fix build behaviour on targets' failures")
added a logic to track failure of builds of individual targets. However, it
does exactly the opposite of what a distro kernel needs: we create a RPM
package with a selected set of selftests and we need the build to fail if
build of any of the targets fail.
Both use cases are valid. A distribution kernel is in control of what is
included in the kernel and what is being built; any error needs to be
flagged and acted upon. A CI system that tries to build as many tests as
possible on the best effort basis is not really interested in a failure here
and there.
Support both use cases by introducing a FORCE_TARGETS variable. It is
switched off by default to make life for CI systems easier, distributions
can easily switch it on while building their packages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
