Coreutils requires a C99 compiler, which means trailing comma support is
required.

If this were directly in gnulib, though, where we still cater to C89
compilers, this patch makes total sense.  And given the location of this
file in the coreutils repo, it looks like we intend for fadvise.h to
eventually migrate to gnulib if it proves useful elsewhere.
