None of the exported headers after 'make headers_install' have definition
of DECLARE_BITMAP macro. It is defined in include/linux/types.h which is
different from include/uapi/linux/types.h and missing this definition and
a few other things.

One option would be add DECLARE_BITMAP macro to include/uapi/linux/types.h
and add include/linux/bitops.h to uapi.

Thoughts?
