Compiles.

However, I get similar warnings (not errors this times,
because only variables are used probably, and implicitly used as ints)

  CC [M]  drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-space-map-checker.o
drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-space-map-checker.c:427:1: warning: data definition has no type or storage class [enabled by default]

  CC [M]  drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-space-map-common.o

Adding similar include to dm-space-map-checker.c, resolves problem.

No further problems found (however I do not have all CONFIG_DM_* enabled).
