No.  We don't install kenrel internal files.  Use SYSDIR instead.

I object to this part of the patch.  We shouldn't install this file.
It isn't needed by anything outside of the kernel/drivers.  For
drivers, it should be built automatically as part of the modules build
system ala the *_if.m stuff.
