Please see my response to [PATCH 4/6] kbuild: add a new
kselftest_install make target to install selftests

These are addressed by the current approach to use existing
INSTALL_MOD_PATH.

Yes. Removing the need for individual makefiles to know the install
path details would be a good improvement to make on top of my patch v4
