  Hum, so the duplicate define certainly isn't nice but it's really a
result of a namespace collision between return codes of two different (sets
of) functions. So deleting the duplicate isn't really solving the problem,
just hiding it. So I'd prefer more one of the following two solutions:
1) Just ignore the problem. Reiserfs is mostly dead and this isn't likely to
cause any subtle issues.
2) Prefix the return codes somehow so that those two error namespaces don't
clash. As a bonus you can convert defines to enums but I'm not sure that's
worth the bother (prefixing is a simple search & replace so that should be
trivial, well except for the CARRY_ON case).
