What about this? Just like Willy did in 1da02f51088 ("selftests/nolibc:
support glibc as well"), Let's only limit the test case under the
__NR_gettimeofday #ifdef:

With the above change, we can simply remove the ugly etext check like this:

If agree, will apply this method in the next revision.

And the one for waitid may work like this:
