[Artful][PATCH 0/2] Fix kernel selftests build error for the "net" testsuite

Oh sorry, I should make it clear in the cover letter.

The test was added just to make the second patch a clean cherry-pick.
The fix to the Makefile needs a new netdevice.sh to be implemented first.

 TEST_PROGS := run_netsocktests run_afpackettests test_bpf.sh netdevice.sh

It is easy to backport this, but I think it's harmless to add an extra
test to this.

Cheers
Sam
