Ok, I figured it out. This is because you compile in tree while I
compile out of tree (with O=builddir) and the difference is that in my
case gcc gets these additional -I$(src) statements and in your case you
need to add them manually:

yours V=1:

  gcc
 -Wp,-MD,drivers/vfio/pci/.vfio_pci_nvlink2.o.d
 -nostdinc
 -isystem /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/7/include
 -I./arch/powerpc/include
 -I./arch/powerpc/include/generated
 -I./include
 -I./arch/powerpc/include/uapi
 -I./arch/powerpc/include/generated/uapi
 -I./include/uapi
 -I./include/generated/uapi
 -include ./include/linux/kconfig.h
 -include ./include/linux/compiler_types.h
 -D__KERNEL__
...


mine V=1 (has -I/home/aik/p/kernel/drivers/vfio/pci and
-Idrivers/vfio/pci):

  /opt/cross/gcc-powerpc64le-linux-8.2.1-nolibc/bin/powerpc64le-linux-gcc
 -Wp,-MD,drivers/vfio/pci/.vfio_pci_nvlink2.o.d
 -nostdinc
 -isystem
/opt/cross/gcc-powerpc64le-linux-8.2.1-nolibc/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc64le-linux/8.2.1/include
 -I/home/aik/p/kernel/arch/powerpc/include
 -I./arch/powerpc/include/generated
 -I/home/aik/p/kernel/include
 -I./include
 -I/home/aik/p/kernel/arch/powerpc/include/uapi
 -I./arch/powerpc/include/generated/uapi
 -I/home/aik/p/kernel/include/uapi
 -I./include/generated/uapi
 -include /home/aik/p/kernel/include/linux/kconfig.h
 -include /home/aik/p/kernel/include/linux/compiler_types.h
 -I/home/aik/p/kernel/drivers/vfio/pci
 -Idrivers/vfio/pci
 -D__KERNEL__
...


This is where it happens:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/scripts/Makefile.lib#n143


I'd rather prefer to fix this in scripts/Makefile.lib#n143 than doing
-I$(src) but this is what everybody does already and therefore I guess
"[PATCH] vfio_pci: Add local source directory as include" from
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10748803/ is correct.

I've had a quick discussion here, and the point is that the distros are
going to enable this anyway and it is quite hard to think of a scenario
when we want VFIO_PCI and POWERNV but not this NVLINK2 support. What
scenario do you have in mind?
