exactly! usr/include/linux/kfd_ioctl.h is not shown until we build the kernel, it is a duplication of the uapi header generated by
kernel "make", that is why we did not see it until "make". If you run git blame usr/include/linux/kfd_ioctl.h,
git will tell us: fatal: no such path 'usr/include/linux/kfd_ioctl.h' in HEAD

In a fresh cloned kernel tree, without "make", in usr/include, try [lszhu@localhost include]$ find -name kfd_ioctl.h
shows nothing, usr/include/linux/kfd_ioct.h is not there until build the kernel.

Means 'usr/include/linux/kfd_ioctl.h' is not a source code file, thus we should include the original uapi one in our code.

If your tree has an outdated version of kfd_ioctl.h there, it's probably something broken with your build tree. Maybe broken file timestamps. It should be easy to fix with a "make mrproper" to force it to update all the build artifacts.
the usr one is an extra copy, kernel build system copies headers from uapi folder to usr/include/linux, so the uapi headers are the original ones.
