vdpa header file is already present in the tree at
vdpa/include/uapi/linux/vdpa.h and used by vdpa/vdpa.c.

As we discussed in thread [1] vdpa header comes from a different
tree, similar to rdma subsystem. Hence remove the duplicate vdpa
UAPI header file.

Can you please review this fix?
I need to submit further extensions to vdpa tool that needs header update; and above fix is necessary.

Ok, but the vdpa.h needs to be kept updated, let me add that
subtree to my update-headers script.

The update headers script does 'make install_headers' in the
Linux kernel tree then clones them to iproute2.

I would prefer that Rdma and Vdpa do not have their own
headers. The future chance of version skew is too high.
For now, the tool will update all three locations.
