Now compilation prints a lot of wanings about redefined macro inside
reiserfs and ceph.

Please pick also:

2f874deba7476a1e579af9028baa2f9dfdefedd1
("conditionally define U32_MAX")

04f9b74e4d96d349de12fdd4e6626af4a9f75e09
("remove extra definitions of U32_MAX")

without first second patch doesn't applies clearly
