If someone wants to restructure headers, that's fine. I was only
trying to understand the confusingly stated intentions of Linus. I
was attempting to fit into those intentions, not change the world.

You've misunderstood. My approach would break *nothing*.
If module-public include file includes a private, it would still
work since 'sys' would be a directory under 'include/linux'. No new
links need be added, needed or referenced. Thus nothing breaks.
