wait, two more observations/questions about uapi ...

[Robert P. J. Day]

  sorry for the fixation, i just want to really understand what's
happening here.

  first, here's an example of a header file that seems odd --
include/linux/xz.h:

... snip ...
#ifdef __KERNEL__
#       include <linux/stddef.h>
#       include <linux/types.h>
#else
#       include <stddef.h>
#       include <stdint.h>
#endif
... snip ...

  that certainly seems like a candidate for uapi refactoring, yet it
doesn't appear in any uapi/ directory, and it isn't collected for
userspace export by "make headers_install".  so what's happening here?

  also, i'm assuming that references to all of the new uapi/
directories will be eventually added to the MAINTAINERS file?

  ok, i'll shut up now.
