who can tell me what's the role of the `include/linux' directory and why we need the directory?? why don't we put those files in `linux' dir into other directory like its parent dir -- 'include'.
Because these files were copied from the Linux source tree, where they have exactly the same filename and newarly exactly the same content. This makes updationg to more recent versions much easier as yoiu always know where the files are coming from.
