Hi,
I'm working on a library that calls syscalls directly to the kernel.
`make hedears_install` is a great command to auto generate the UAPI
headers that are needed to call the kernel.

But the headers are still missing a bunch of defines for flags and
structs.

I wanted to know if patches to move more things from `./include/linux`
to `./include/uapi/linux` are welcome (obviously only
typedefs/defines/structs that are required for the syscalls)

I think the UAPI is really close to getting a complete set of things
needed to communicate with the syscalls, but still not quite there. I
would like to push patches whenever I see missing things that my
library needs (that way it will be incrementally and by usage only).

Would love to get feedback.
Thanks,
Elichai.
