Thanks for catching this. Mistake which is a result of very late Friday night coding.

Correct. So the value for .all_filesystems should be maximum of supported
filesystems. The only think I don't like about it that it takes some time to
check everything (mkfs.* available ... etc), but we can't avoid it.
Is it worth to cache this value (make it static in the function) so that it's not
searched more than once?

OK, I'll dig into kernel's fs/ext{2,4}/
The problem is, that we still theoretically support kernel 3.0,
thus old kernels are likely using this approach and newer not.
Let's see if and when it was changed.
Kind regards,
Petr
