kernel-headers: fix 3.0 header exports for headers with __packed
Fixes E.G. mtd/ubi-user.h, which otherwise breaks busybox 1.9 builds with ubi applets. Upstream post 3.0 and discussed here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/22/25 Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>

+Subject: [PATCH] headers_install: fix __packed in exported kernel headers
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+checkpatch.pl warns about using __attribute__((packed)) in kernel
+headers: "__packed is preferred over __attribute__((packed))". If one
+follows that advice it could cause problems in the exported header
+files, because the outside world doesn't know about this shortcut.
+
+For example busybox will fail to compile:
+ CC miscutils/ubi_attach_detach.o
+ In file included from miscutils/ubi_attach_detach.c:27:0:
+ /usr/include/mtd/ubi-user.h:330:3: error: conflicting types for ‘__packed’
+ /usr/include/mtd/ubi-user.h:314:3: note: previous declaration of ‘__packed’ was here
+...
+
+Fix the problem by substituting __packed with __attribute__((packed)) in
+the header_install.pl script.
