[PATCH] [BZ 19239] Don't include sys/sysmacros.h from sys/types.h.

[Zack Weinberg <zackw at panix dot com>]

This completes the deprecation and removal of this inclusion, which
was begun in the 2.25 release.

	* posix/sys/types.h: Don't include sys/sysmacros.h.
	* misc/sys/sysmacros.h: Remove the conditional deprecation
	warnings for the macros defined by this header.

+ * The macros 'major', 'minor', and 'makedev' are now only available from
+   the header <sys/sysmacros.h>; not from <sys/types.h> or various other
+   headers that happen to include <sys/types.h>.  These macros are rarely
+   used, not part of POSIX nor XSI, and their names frequently collide with
+   user code; see https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19239 for
+   further explanation.
+
+   <sys/sysmacros.h> is a GNU extension.  Portable programs that require
+   these macros should first include <sys/types.h>, and then include
+   <sys/sysmacros.h> if __GNU_LIBRARY__ is defined.
