[Buildroot] [git commit] iptables: fix build with 3.2 kernel headers

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=3da83717450bc512343dc46c5121721edb85e205
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Based on upstream post-1.14.12.2 change.

linux/if_packet.h changed to use the newly introduced __aligned_u64
type in 3.2, which iptables' embedded linux/types.h doesn't provide.
Fix it by updating linux/types.h.
