So this leaves a bunch of non-ignored files in selftests/bpf directory:

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
        btf_dump_test_case_bitfields.c
        btf_dump_test_case_multidim.c
        btf_dump_test_case_namespacing.c
        btf_dump_test_case_ordering.c
        btf_dump_test_case_packing.c
        btf_dump_test_case_padding.c
        btf_dump_test_case_syntax.c

We can add them to .gitignore, but that feels wrong, to be honest. Any
ideas how to fix this in some better way?
