Hello Tobias and Michael,
I quote yours previous private reply about debian bug #171681 on the
manpage list with my next post about it and a copy of the last patch.

About this bug I had send this first patch to M. Kerrisk. He rejected
it. Too long for a good review. See this thread on
linux-...@vger.kernel.org [1].
I started to break my patch and some passages were corrected (see
patches accepted from March 2015) [2].
The list is long and it must be controlled because my initial patch was
only to add all FS. Then I wanted to check every description with the
kernel doc.
(PS: Sorry, I changed my PC before a disaster and yet, my copy of git is
on a USB key that I do not have with me. I can not do more to help.)

b) Send me a *list* of the filesystems you propose to add,
possibly with suggestions on how those FSes could be added
in patches that add multiple related FSes.
Here is a list:
adfs, afs, affs (five variants: DOS/0, DOS/1, DOS/2, DOS/3, DOS/4, DOS/5),
befs, bfs, btrfs, ceph, cifs, coda, coherent, configfs, cramfs, debugfs,
devpts, dlmfs, ecryptfs, efivarfs, exofs, f2fs, fat, gfs2, hfs, hfsplus,
logfs, nilfs2, ocfs2, omfs, pohmelfs, qnx6, ramfs, reiserfs, romfs, spufs,
spufs, squashfs, sysfs, tmpfs, ubifs, udf, ufs, v9fs, usbfs, xenix
Any ideas about ways of grouping these? I'd rather not receive one
patch with them all...
No idea of grouping. In packages of two or three?
Okay -- if nothing better, that will do.
