TBH, I would rather take that one into fs/filesystems.c.  Rationale:
get_filesystem_list(), for all its resemblance to /proc/filesystems
contents, is used only by init/*.c and it's not a big deal to make
it

int __init get_filesystem_list(char *buf, bool is_dev)
{
	int f = is_dev ? FS_REQUIRES_DEV : 0;
        int left = PAGE_SIZE, count = 0;
        struct file_system_type *p;

        read_lock(&file_systems_lock);
	for (p = file_systems; p; p = p->next) {
		if ((p->fs_flags & FS_REQUIRES_DEV) == f) {
			size_t len = strlen(p->name) + 1;
			if (len > left)
				break;
			memcpy(buf, p->name, len);
			buf += len;
			left -= len;
			count++;
		}
	}
        read_unlock(&file_systems_lock);
	return count;
}

Generates NUL-separated list, returns the number of list elements,
the second argument is "what kind do you want"...
