Yes, that correctly detects fallocate as not present for me and
thus gives a working fallocate.

Why do you nee to include <linux/falloc.h> here anyway?  You don't use
any of the constants, and the fallocate libc call must be in another
headers, so it obviously compiles even without a defintion for it.
