In Linux, there isn't a very consistent policy about userspace kernel
header inclusion. On a typical Linux system, you're likely to find
kernel headers in three places.

At least on Fedora, kernel-headers is. It is installed in
/usr/include/linux and is synced (sorta) to the installed kernel.
It's not the case with Ubuntu.
Carrying a subset of kernel headers is a bit too much, IMO.
Carrying virtio, kvm, and if_tun would be sufficient

Umm, it is. That's exactly the reason what it is for. Note that the

We have to. It's not just KVM, it's virtio, tun/tap, and as we add more
things to the Linux kernel to support QEMU, it'll just grow larger.
This is how applications are

Developers, in particular, like to point things at their random
kernel trees. In general though, relying on a full kernel source
tree being available isn't a good idea. Kernel headers change
dramatically across versions too so it's very likely that we
