OK. Perhaps, we can import <arm_neon.h> and  <altivec.h>
into the kernel tree as we did for <stdarg.h>,
then remove "-isystem $(shell $(CC) -print-file-name=include)"
entirely, but I did not look into it.


If we can avoid the arm_neon.h mess,
we can clean up arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/types.h as well.
It is a possible future work.

Anyway, could you add some comments?
(see blew)
