Build breaks when executing make with run_tests for sub-folders
under powerpc. This is because, CFLAGS and GIT_VERSION macros are
defined in Makefile of toplevel powerpc folder.
make: Entering directory '/home/maddy/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm'
gcc hugetlb_vs_thp_test.c ../harness.c ../utils.c -o /home/maddy/selftest_output//hugetlb_vs_thp_test
hugetlb_vs_thp_test.c:6:10: fatal error: utils.h: No such file or directory
6 | #include "utils.h"
| ^~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
Fix this by adding the flags.mk in each sub-folder Makefile. Also remove
the CFLAGS and GIT_VERSION macros from powerpc/ folder Makefile since
the same is definied in flags.mk

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 reStructuredText 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.
