Please see this message from our earlier thread where you were able to find it on your system: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/63293c72-55ca-9446-35eb-74aff4c8ba5d@linuxfoundation.org/
As mentioned in that thread, on my system it arrived via user space's libgcc-dev package. This does not seem to be the first time including files from this source - I did a quick check and from what I can tell existing kselftest includes like stdarg.h, stdbool.h, stdatomic.h, unwind.h, x86intrin.h ... arrive via libgcc-dev.
