This is a different header.

$ ls -1R include/uapi/scsi/
include/uapi/scsi/:
cxlflash_ioctl.h
fc
scsi_bsg_fc.h
scsi_bsg_mpi3mr.h
scsi_bsg_ufs.h
scsi_netlink_fc.h
scsi_netlink.h

include/uapi/scsi/fc:
fc_els.h
fc_fs.h
fc_gs.h
fc_ns.h

$ ls -1R /usr/include/scsi/
/usr/include/scsi/:
scsi.h
scsi_ioctl.h
sg.h


For example I wanted to use scsi_bsg_ufs.h to compile qbootctl.

This is not complete. Compare /usr/include/libdrm and include/uapi/drm.

armada_drm.h, etnaviv_drm.h, exynos_drm.h, habanalabs_accel.h,
ivpu_accel.h, lima_drm.h and several other headers are missing.
I checked msm_drm.h, the header which I care about, it is heavily outdated.

Ack, these are up-to-date.
