This series aims to keep the git status clean after building the selftests by adding some missing .gitignore files and object inclusion in existing .gitignore files. This is one of the requirements listed in the selftests documentation for new tests, but it is not always followed as desired.
After adding these .gitignore files and including the generated objects, the working tree appears clean again.
The new version includes a missing entry fot the .gitignore in damon, which was reported by Bernd Edlinger bernd.edlinger@hotmail.de, who also proposed a patch for it as well as for other missing .gitignore files covered by v1. Bernd has been added to the corresponding patch as the reporter. If a different tag is desired, I am fine with it.
