An IRC discussion sparked a memory: most filesystems really don't
need to put anything at all in include/linux. Excluding API-ish
filesystems like procfs, just about the only filesystem symbols that
get exported outside of __KERNEL__ are the *_SUPER_MAGIC symbols,
and similar symbols.
After seeing the useful attributes of linux/poison.h, I propose a
similar linux/magic.h.
But... if some patch changes this file (like adding new magic symbol) it
will cause large part of the kernel to rebuild without any good reason.
No?
