The pattern rule `$(OUTPUT)/%: %.c` inadvertently included a circular dependency on the global-timer target due to its inclusion in $(TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED). This resulted in a circular dependency warning during the build process.

To resolve this, the dependency on $(TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED) has been replaced with an explicit dependency on $(OUTPUT)/libatest.so. This change ensures that libatest.so is built before any other targets that require it, without creating a circular dependency.

This fix addresses the following warning:

make[4]: Entering directory 'tools/testing/selftests/alsa' make[4]: Circular default_modconfig/kselftest/alsa/global-timer <- default_modconfig/kselftest/alsa/global-timer dependency dropped. make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'. make[4]: Leaving directory 'tools/testing/selftests/alsa'
