next question about exporting kernel headers, this one related to
the content placed under include/uapi/.
is there any rationale for header files to be living under
include/uapi/<somedir> if they're not listed in the corresponding
Kbuild file for export?
for example, in include/uapi/drm, there are 24 header files, but
only 21 of them are mentioned in that Kbuild file -- the Kbuild file
doesn't mention armada_drm.h, etnaviv_drm.h or omap_drm.h, and i've
verified that running "make headers_install" doesn't install those
three headers.
i'm going to assume those are just forgotten remnants or something,
unless there is some actual reason to do that. is there?
