Gcc Compilation Issue

[ajgbarnes]

I tried compiling this on the following configuration:

• Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2
• gcc 8.3.0
• Raspbian 10 (buster)
• Linux raspberrypi 5.4.51-v7+ #1327 SMP Thu Jul 23 10:58:46 BST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

And received the following errors:

hardware.c:8:5: error: conflicting types for ‘hw_maxtracks’
 int hw_maxtracks = HW_MAXTRACKS;
     ^~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from hardware.c:5:
hardware.h:43:21: note: previous declaration of ‘hw_maxtracks’ was here
 extern unsigned int hw_maxtracks;
                     ^~~~~~~~~~~~

hardware.c:10:5: error: conflicting types for ‘hw_currenthead’

It was complaining about unsigned versus (implicitly) signed int mismatch.

I created a pull request for this #16
