[PATCH] powerpc/boot: Remove duplicate typedefs from libfdt_env.h

When building a uImage or zImage using ppc6xx_defconfig and some other
defconfigs, the following error occurs:

  BOOTCC  arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.o
  In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.c:51:0:
  ../arch/powerpc/boot/libfdt_env.h:10:13: error: redefinition of typedef 'uint32_t'
  ../arch/powerpc/boot/types.h:21:13: note: previous declaration of 'uint32_t' was here
  ../arch/powerpc/boot/libfdt_env.h:11:13: error: redefinition of typedef 'uint64_t'
  ../arch/powerpc/boot/types.h:22:13: note: previous declaration of 'uint64_t' was here
  ../arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile:210: recipe for target 'arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.o' failed
  make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.o] Error 1

The problem is that commit 656ad58ef19e (powerpc/boot: Add OPAL console
to epapr wrappers) adds typedefs for uint32_t and uint64_t to type.h but
doesn't remove the pre-existing (and now duplicate) typedefs from
libfdt_env.h.  Fix the error by removing the duplicat typedefs from
libfdt_env.h

Having said all of that, commit 656ad58ef19e (powerpc/boot: Add OPAL
console to epapr wrappers) went into mainline back in 2016 so, AFAICT,
this has been broken since then.  That seems unlikely so I must be
missing something...  Any ideas what that is?

I built all of the defconfigs that I had toolchains handy for (really
just old-fashioned ppc32, non-booke) so I didn't test everything.
Compile tested only as I no longer have any relevant hardware.

Based on git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux fixes
currently at e4b79900222b (powerpc/64s: Fix NULL AT_BASE_PLATFORM when
using DT CPU features).
