Sometimes "$(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc" is not enough: For instance, we need
to pass --sysroot to CC:
  CC="aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc
--sysroot=/oe/build/tmp-lkft-glibc/work/hikey-linaro-linux/kselftests-mainline/4.19-r0/recipe-sysroot"

This is the problem. It says, it came from Fathi Boudra 
<fathi.boudra@linaro.org>

Denys, apologies for sending this patch as Fathi's. In our Git
repository [1] he's marked as author, probably as it got copied from
repo to repo.

Would you mind sending this patch yourself?

Thanks and greetings!
