I wonder if it would be a good idea to separate all the user-space relevant stuff in header files from the kernel-only internals.
I mean creating a <linux/api/ppdev.h> etc. for all the ioctls and user-visible structure definitions. Leave the _kernel_ stuff in linux/.
Applications that use a feature should still make a copy of the appropriate header file. (But they don't have to, at least when throwing something together locally). At least they could just copy files, instead of extracting individual definitions and having to change the references to fundamental types.
