I'll put these defines in hsmapi.c, and revert DMF_EV_BITS back to using
these symbols:

/* DM_EVENT_* are defined in <xfs/dmapi.h>. Trying to avoid a dmapi dependency
  * in xfsdump since dmapi is not commonly used, yet this code needs to know some
  * of the event bits.
  */
#define	DM_EVENT_READ		16
#define	DM_EVENT_WRITE		17
#define	DM_EVENT_TRUNCATE	18
#define	DM_EVENT_DESTROY	20
