[Patch] UML build: fix missing posix_types.h

[Patch] UML build: fix missing posix_types.h

[WANG Cong]

When building UML with 'O=foo' specified, I got:

CC      kernel/bounds.s
  In file included from
/home/wangcong/Projects/linux-2.6/include/linux/types.h:11,
                 from

Below patch fixed it, note, it is only tested for x86 and um.

I have a similar patch locally. I just check for errno.h so I 
do not have to do the extra check in objtree.
Will push tonight.
