Yes, I though too that this problem might affect other files too. But 
unfortunately including common.h from within asm/types.h does not work since 
common.h includes (and needs) types.h itself.

I have no elegant solution to handle this in a more generic way right now. 
Perhaps somebody else has? Ideas welcome. :)
