The infrastructure to mock core libnvdimm routines for unit testing
purposes is prone to bitrot relative to refactoring of that core.
Arrange for the unit test core to be built when CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST=y.
This does not result in a functional unit test environment, it is only a
helper for 0day to catch unit test build regressions.

Note that there are a few x86isms in the implementation, so this does
not bother compile testing this architectures other than 64-bit x86.

Changes since v3:

- Switch the Makefile operator from := to += to make sure the unit test
  infrastructure is incrementally included.

Jason, lets try this again. This seems to resolve the build error for
me. I believe ":=" would have intermittent results in a parallel build
and sometimes result in other targets in drivers/nvdimm/Makefile being
bypassed. This has been exposed to the 0day robot for a day with no
reports.
