[Buildroot] [PATCH] iptables: fix build after linux-headers changes

As reported by 'scanf' on IRC, the iptables now fails to build because
of a missing <asm/cache.h> header in the kernel headers. The package
directly uses $(LINUX_HEADERS_DIR), which is not correct: this is the
source directory of the kernel, not where they are installed, and in
addition, this directory is empty/does not exist when using external
toolchains.

Instead, we use $(STAGING_DIR)/usr, which contains the kernel headers,
as part of the toolchain headers.
