+Subject: [PATCH] selftests/mm: pass down full CC and CFLAGS to check_config.sh
+
+check_config.sh checks that liburing is available by running the compiler
+provided as its first argument.  This makes two assumptions:
+
+1. CC consists of only one word
+2. No extra flag is required
+
+Unfortunately, there are many situations where these assumptions don't
+hold.  For instance:
+
+- When using Clang, CC consists of multiple words
+- When cross-compiling, extra flags may be required to allow the
+  compiler to find headers
+
+Remove these assumptions by passing down CC and CFLAGS as-is from the
+Makefile, so that the same command line is used as when actually building
+the tests.
