On a system with quite old <linux/loop.h> file from some 2.6.18-derived
kernel headers I've got a build failure:

loop.c:36:4: error: 'LO_FLAGS_AUTOCLEAR' undeclared here (not in a function)
loop.c: In function 'loop_ioctl':
loop.c:167:7: error: 'LOOP_SET_CAPACITY' undeclared (first use in this function)
loop.c:167:7: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
