The current kernel module build infrastructure relies on the ability to
create symlinks from known directory names used in the AFS code to the
actual locations of the kernel header files. This breaks if there is no
single kernel header tree and instead multiple trees are layered together
by kbuild using compile-time -I include paths.
Attempt to detect this case by seeing if linux/types.h is in the kernel
header directory where we expect it. If not, rather than creating
symlinks for h, sys, and netinet, create directories and populate them
with single-line headers that just include the corresponding linux/*.h
header. The list of headers for which to do this is generated dynamically
by analyzing the AFS kernel source code and looking for relevant #include
directives.
This patch has been part of the Debian OpenAFS package since
1.4.10+dfsg1-1. The check for whether we have layered kernel header trees
may be specific to Debian and may require modification later if other
Linux distributions do something similar.
