Your headers seem broken. What should happen (i.e. in upstream kernel
git) is:

linux/dvb/frontend.h has:
#include <linux/types.h>

linux/types.h has:
#include <asm/types.h>

asm/types.h has:
#include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>

asm-generic/int-ll64.h has:
typedef unsigned char __u8;

Maybe one of these includes in these files is missing?
