Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: skip header install/check for right under uapi directories

Since commit 61562f981e92 ("uapi: export all arch specifics
directories"), "make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=${root}/usr headers_install"
deletes standard glibc headers and others in ${root}/usr/include.

The cause of the issue is that headers_install now starts descending
from arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi with ${root}/usr/include for its
destination when installing asm headers.  So, headers already there
are assumed to be unwanted.

When headers_install starts descending from include/uapi with
${root}/usr/include for its destination, it works around the problem
by creating an dummy destination ${root}/usr/include/uapi, but this
is tricky.

To fix the problem in a clean way is to skip header install/check in
include/uapi or arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi.  A good side-effect
is the empty destination ${root}/usr/include/uapi will go away.

Fixes: 61562f981e92 ("uapi: export all arch specifics directories")
