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?
