[PATCH] kbuild: uapi: Drop types.h check from headers_check.pl

[Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>]

Since commit d6fc9fcbaa65 ("kbuild: compile-test exported headers to
ensure they are self-contained"), the UAPI headers are compile tested
standalone with the compiler. This compile testing will catch a missing
include of types.h, making the types.h checking in headers_check.pl
originally added in commit 483b41218fa9 ("kbuild: add checks for include
of linux/types in userspace headers") obsolete.
