The following contradicts the examples in
Documentation/make/headers_install.txt, but in my case (android tree),
the make command creates an 'include' subdirectory in $INSTALL_HDR_PATH.
That is, if I do
make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/path/to/headers/ headers_install
Then, the headers are installed into /path/to/headers/include.
