MODVERSIONS recently grew a dependency on !COMPILE_TEST so that Rust
could be more easily tested. However, this introduces a Kconfig warning
when building allmodconfig with a clang version that supports RANDSTRUCT
natively because RANDSTRUCT_FULL and RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE select
MODVERSIONS when MODULES is enabled, bypassing the !COMPILE_TEST
dependency:

  WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for MODVERSIONS
    Depends on [n]: MODULES [=y] && !COMPILE_TEST [=y]
    Selected by [y]:
    - RANDSTRUCT_FULL [=y] && (CC_HAS_RANDSTRUCT [=y] || GCC_PLUGINS [=n]) && MODULES [=y]

Add the !COMPILE_TEST dependency to the selections to clear up the
warning.

Argh. I should have checked, but I didn't think anybody would 'select'
MODVERSIONS.

That's such an odd thing to do in general, but I guess for RANDSTRUCT
it actually makes sense (since a plain version check is nonsensical).

Now that 'select' statement is truly crazy and another level of odd
duck, but I guess it still makes perfect sense ("give me the build
coverage, but this is never going to be run, so don't bother with
MODVERSIONS").

So Ack on the patch. And now I did check that there doesn't seem to be
anything else with odd MODVERSIONS Kconfig rules.

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion on both fronts (perhaps I should
have actually put that in the patch description).

Thanks, it looks like you'll get this via Kees soon.

Cheers,

Applied to for-linus/hardening, thanks!
