linux/videodev2.h uses types such as __u8 but it fails to include

<linux/time.h> already includes <linux/types.h>. However, there are
user apps that try to include videodev2.h (e.g., ekiga) and at least

userspace apps should (must?) not include kernel headers, AFAIK.
there is lots of discussion regarding this in the lkml archives...
