Yes, to be fully honest with you guys, I had this impression, however I
could not find any directive in how to do this, and it was blocking my
development. So I apologise, but I just made a raw copy, then I forgot
to look back into this.

Please, if anyone could help me understanding what's the right procedure
for "importing" the UAPI headers from the kernel, I would greatly
appreciate this.

Thanks,
Piergiorgio
