New DKMS-based DOCA-OFED installations store headers in /usr/src/ofa_kernel-dkms/ and create symlinks from /usr/src/ofa_kernel/ for backward compatibility.

Using the ...-dkms path directly is more robust as it contains the actual files, avoiding potential issues with symlinks that may be missing, broken, or not yet created during package installation.
