kbuild: compile-test kernel headers to ensure they are self-contained
The headers in include/ are globally used in the kernel source tree to provide common APIs. They are included from external modules, too. It will be useful to make as many headers self-contained as possible so that we do not have to rely on a specific include order. There are more than 4000 headers in include/. In my rough analysis, 70% of them are already self-contained. With efforts, most of them can be self-contained. For now, we must exclude more than 1000 headers just because they cannot be compiled as standalone units. I added them to header-test-. The blacklist was mostly generated by a script, so the reason of the breakage should be checked later.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
