I'm using "Generic Kext" project template provided with xcode for developing a kext.
All examples seem to use headers from /System/Library/Frameworks/Kernel.framework/Headers.
Which other header files I can use for kext programming,

You should restrict yourself to the headers in the Kernel framework.  These are the headers that Apple plans to support in the long term.  While you can get extra functionality by pulling in headers from the Darwin source, this isn't something that we support.  Also, it's likely that the resulting KEXT would not be binary compatible with future systems.
