0-DAY reported the following bug:

tree:   git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm-misc drm-misc-next
head:   21376e2c3c5bad5e87ba700c055c8a8235c2bfd5
commit: e9eafcb589213395232084a2378e2e90f67feb29 [1/2] drm: move drm_can_sleep() to drm_util.h
config: alpha-allmodconfig (attached as .config)
...
   In file included from include/linux/irqflags.h:16:0,
                    from include/drm/drm_util.h:35,
                    from drivers/gpu/drm/qxl/qxl_cmd.c:28:
>> arch/alpha/include/asm/irqflags.h:58:15: error: unknown type name 'bool'
    static inline bool arch_irqs_disabled_flags(unsigned long flags)
                  ^~~~
...

So we have a situation where we do not pull in <linux/types.h>
when building for alpha.

An quick grep shows that roughly half of the declarations of
arch_irqs_disabled_flags() uses int as return type, the other half bool.

Two invasive fixes where considered:
- Change all declarations of arch_irqs_disabled_flags() to use bool
- Add include of <linux/types.h> to all files that uses bool for
  arch_irqs_disabled_flags

To invases with a too high pain/benefit ratio, so dropped.

Some less invasive fixes was also considered:
- Add include of <linux/types.h> to irqflags.h
- Add include of <linux/types.h> to qxl_cmd.c
- Add include of <linux/types.h> to drm_util.h

The first was dropped as irqflags.h did not use bool, so no need for the
types.h header file.

The latter was considered the best option as there could
be other similar cases and we would like the header files below
include/drm/ to be selfcontained.

It turns out that using the standard alphabetical order did not work
well as we then included irqflags.h before types.h.
It was considered just to pull in interrupt.h but that would
pull in a lot of unused stuff.
So in the end types.h was included with a comment that it must be first.

Build tested with alpha allmodconfig.

Hi all.

Please do not apply.

O-DAY found a similar bug when building ia64, but this time there is
something else from irqflags.h that causes the error.

So...

This seems to be the rigth solution anyway, as interrupt.h
have all the necessary dependencies.
I will try this tonight and post an updated patch.
