The mm Makefile includes local_config.mk, which is generated by a rule
that announces itself with "CHK [config] local_config.mk" on standard
output, which make -s does not suppress. When make has to regenerate the
file while it reads the Makefile for emit_tests, for example on a fresh
tree or when the selftests are installed with make -B, the message
becomes part of the emit_tests output that the selftests install target
appends to kselftest-list.txt, so the runlist gains a line that is not a
test.

Print the message on standard error. With V=1 the message is empty and
only the redirection of an empty command remains.
