More specifically, building kernel will generate
'linux/arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/errno.h', which prevents
nolibc-test with O= generate
'output-x86/arch/x86/include/generated/asm/errno.h'.

There are two potential solutions for addressing this issue.

The first option involves copying
'linux/arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/' to 'sysroot/x86/include/'
during the make of target headers_standalone.

The second approach entails displaying an error message when the code
tree is not clean and prompting users to manually execute 'make
mrproper'. In this case, we can utilize the target 'outputmakefile' from
the root makefile directly.

Willy, which method do you prefer? Do you have any alternative
suggestions? :)


Besides. using x86_64-linux-gnu- won't reproduce this issue. It searched
and found 'asm/errno.h' in '/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu', whereas
'x86_64-linux' lacks these libraries.
