[PATCH] KVM: selftests: add empty install and run_tests targets for unsupported ARCHs

[PATCH] KVM: selftests: add empty install and run_tests targets for unsupported ARCHs

[Sasha Levin]

Commit 43fbd8cd389f ("KVM: selftests: Provide empty 'all' and 'clean'
targets for unsupported ARCHs") gave the KVM selftests empty all and
clean targets on architectures without KVM selftests, such as 32-bit
arm and i386. The selftests Makefile also runs install and run_tests
in each suite, and those still fail there:

  make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'install'.  Stop.

Add empty install and run_tests targets as well.

Fixes: 43fbd8cd389f ("KVM: selftests: Provide empty 'all' and 'clean' targets for unsupported ARCHs")

Found with KernelCI-style TuxMake builds that record per-suite results
with KSFT_BUILD_REPORT. 32-bit arm builds now succeed without installing
anything.

Deuling AIs?  The other patch seems like a superset.

Sorry, my mistake. Please take the October one and drop this.

This type of issue seems to happen everywhere in tools/, and I feel like
I'm in a giant game of whack-a-mole.
