[LTP] Verify LTP was compiled with specific kernel headers

What for? LTP compilation does not depend on a kernel version during
build.

All it depends on is glibc and a couple of devel libraries, but in most
of the cases we carry fallback definitions in a case that something is
missing.

LTP mostly avoids including kernel headers, it mostly uses libc and very
few kernel ones when necessary, but as said we carry fallback
definitions to carry on with compliation on older systems.
