From your libc. Which ought to have its own copies, normally coming from make headers_install in kernel source. And yes, it had been that way for many years by now. Userland should *not* blindly grab the kernel headers.
Incidentally, your 'asm' is obviously bogus - the headers that should end up there ought to come from arch/<whatever>/include/uapi/asm (and _not_ by pointing a symlink to it); yours points to the place where asm-generic ones ought to have been copied from.
