Subject: [GIT PULL] User-API header split preliminary patches


Hi Linus,

Can you pull these patches from my GIT repository please?

They prepare the way for splitting out the User API definitions from the
standard kernel internal headers into their own header file directories (there
will be arch-specific directories as well as the common ones).

They have been in linux-next for roughly three weeks.

I have audited them from my initial patch submission to get rid of patches
that are no longer necessary.

I have also built allyesconfig with all the cross-compilers I can create on
the full patch spectrum (on the uapi-split branch in the same tree) and
eliminated the problems created.

Can you please consider pulling the further patchset that actually performs
the split at the end of the merge window.  It *will* need regenerating
whenever it is pulled, but is mostly scripted.

Thanks,
David
