[ Upstream commit 66128f4287b04aef4d4db9bf5035985ab51487d5 ]
On m68k, check_sizetypes in headers_check reports:
./usr/include/asm/bootinfo-amiga.h:17: found __[us]{8,16,32,64} type without #include <linux/types.h>
This header file does not use any of the Linux-specific integer types,
but merely refers to them from comments, so this is a false positive.
As of commit c3a9d74ee413bdb3 ("kbuild: uapi: upgrade check_sizetypes()
warning to error"), this check was promoted to an error, breaking m68k
all{mod,yes}config builds.
Fix this by stripping simple comments before looking for Linux-specific
integer types.

This script is only used by usr/include/Makefile. Make it local to
the directory.
Update the comment in include/uapi/linux/soundcard.h because
'make headers_check' is no longer functional.
