Subject: [PATCH] types: Drop definition of __EXPORTED_HEADERS__

This definition disarms the warning in uapi/linux/types.h about
including kernel headers from user space. However the warning is already
disarmed due to the fact that kernel code is built with -D__KERNEL__.

Drop the pointless definition.
