I did that now. Surprisingly CVS HEAD only contained one single usage
of __u8 and no other kernel datatypes any more, since volume_id was
recently synced to the latest upstream version which did the same
switch to the userspace data types :-)

So the updated patch against HEAD at [1] fixes this last instance in
drive_id.c, removes the configure.in check and replaces the inclusions
asm/types.h and sys/types.h with stdint.h, which is preferable since
stdint.h is an ISO C standard.

Thanks for considering and have a nice day!

Martin
