Subject: best practices:  which "uaccess.h" should one include?

  philosophically, which is the "correct" uaccess.h header file to
include in kernel code -- <linux/uaccess.h> or <asm/uaccess.h>?  the
first explicitly includes the second so that's a safe choice but,
generally, there's been a tendency to shift toward including the
"linux" header files.  opinion?  there's quite a mixture under the
drivers/ directory.
