Right.  <sys/_lock.h> and <sys/_mutex.h> use the queue macros and don't
include <sys/queue.h>, so headers that include them must include
<sys/queue.h> first.

When fixing this, please also remove the new bogus include of <sys/types.h>
from <sys/file.h>.  <sys/types.h> has been a prerequisite for <sys/file.h>
in the kernel for at least 10 years, so everything that included
<sys/file.h> already included this prerequisite (usually indirectly
via <sys/param.h>).
