The kernel headers in /usr/include/linux do not have to be from the
same kernel as you are running, they just need to be the same headers
that were used when libc6 was compiled. If any software you are compiling
needs newer headers (eg extra modules) then it should know to look in
/usr/src/linux/include/linux, or /usr/local/src/linux/include/linux.
