Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] uapi: export all headers under uapi directories

Here is the v4 of this series. Seems there was too many people cc'ed, so I've
removed arch specific ml. Hope it's better now.

Patches #1 to #4 are just cleanup: some exported headers were still under
a non-uapi directory.
The patch #5 was spotted by code review: there is no in-tree user of this
functionality.
Patches #6 and #7 remove the need to list explicitly headers. Now all files
under an uapi directory are exported.

This series has been tested with a 'make headers_install' on x86 and a
'make headers_install_all'. I've checked the result of both commands.

This patch is built against linus tree. If I must rebase it against the kbuild
tree, just tell me.

v3 -> v4:
 - first patch has been included
 - patch #4: get back to v2 and remove arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h

v2 -> v3:
 - patch #1: remove arch/arm/include/asm/types.h
 - patch #2: remove arch/h8300/include/asm/bitsperlong.h
 - patch #3: remove arch/nios2/include/uapi/asm/setup.h
 - patch #4: don't export msr-index.h
 - patch #5: fix a typo: s/unput-files3-name/input-files3-name
 - patch #6: no change
 - patch #7: fix include/uapi/asm-generic/Kbuild.asm by introducing mandatory-y
 - add patch #8

v1 -> v2:
 - add patch #1 to #6
 - patch #7: remove use of header-y

Comments are welcomed,
Nicolas
