+Subject: [PATCH] Include sysmacros.h to compile with newer gcc
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Older gcc throws a warning
+```
+photosyst.c: In function 'lvmmapname':
+photosyst.c:1465:13: warning: In the GNU C Library, "major" is defined
+ by <sys/sysmacros.h>. For historical compatibility, it is
+ currently defined by <sys/types.h> as well, but we plan to
+ remove this soon. To use "major", include <sys/sysmacros.h>
+ directly. If you did not intend to use a system-defined macro
+ "major", you should undefine it after including <sys/types.h>.
+     dmp->major  = major(statbuf.st_rdev);
+```
+
+Newer gcc throws an error:
+
+```
+photosyst.c: In function ‘lvmmapname’:
+photosyst.c:1482:19: error: called object ‘major’ is not a function or function pointer
+     dmp->major  = major(statbuf.st_rdev);
+                   ^~~~~
+photosyst.c:1437:25: note: declared here
+ lvmmapname(unsigned int major, unsigned int minor,
+            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~
+```
