I .. still don't think this is good idea. What about namespaces?
The path corresponds to path in which namespace?

Is the EBUSY -- userspace please try again, but you don't know when to
try again -- right interface? I mean, normally kernel would wait, so
that userland does not have to poll?

This shows why the interface is not right... Valid filename may
contain \n, right? It may even end with \n.
