From: Michal Suchanek msuchanek@suse.de
commit 1b689a95ce7427075f9ac9fb4aea1af530742b7f upstream.
Commit 6e032b350cd1 ("powerpc/powernv: Check device-tree for RFI flush settings") uses u64 in asm/hvcall.h without including linux/types.h
This breaks hvcall.h users that do not include the header themselves.
