Right, so in this patch, either we define HAVE_GETFSMAP if we find
it on the system, or we implement it in include/linux.h and define
it then.  So HAVE_GETFSMAP won't get set on non-linux.

But in the next patch that actually makes use of the fsmap ioctl,
we'll need to conditionally include fsmap.c, and then all should
be good, I think, right?  Something like:

+# On linux we get fsmap from the system or define it ourselves
+# so include this based on platform type.  If this reverts to only
+# the autoconf check w/o local definition, change to testing HAVE_GETFSMAP
+ifeq ($(PKG_PLATFORM),linux)
+CFILES += fsmap.c
+endif

Jan, do you still use it?
