[PATCH v2 1/5] ARM: Add a neon-intrinsics.h header like on arm64

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email protected]>

Add a header asm/neon-intrinsics.h similar to the one that arm64 has.
This makes it possible for NEON intrinsics code to be shared seamlessly
between ARM and arm64.

 * Compile the unit containing the NEON intrinsics with '-ffreestanding' so GCC
   uses its builtin version of <stdint.h> (this is a C99 header which the kernel

-* Include <arm_neon.h> last, or at least after <linux/types.h>
