I wished the bug report would be helpful in a way to say which other piece of sw
would like that define in magic.h.
It probably works as band-aid but I wonder whether it would be cleaner to remove
the define from fs/overlayfs/super.c and include magic.h instead (to have only
one define and in the same place)
