I note that the test uses the master branch of the upstream linux repo
(which I'll point out is not ideal for getting reliable test results),
and that there's a commit to fix build errors with this test introduced
during 4.11.

    selftests/bpf: fix broken build
    
    Recent merge of 'linux-kselftest-4.11-rc1' tree broke bpf test build.
    None of the tests were building and test_verifier.c had tons of compiler 
errors.
    Fix it and add #ifdef CAP_IS_SUPPORTED to support old versions of libcap.
    Tested on centos 6.8 and 7

When I tried running the steps manually in a VM with the current
upstream master branch it built fine. So maybe this was a transient
error caused by an upstream bug; I'd suggest retrying to see if the
problem has been fixed.
