That's conceptually what I meant. But it has the problem that new and
out-of-tree filesystems might forget to do it. Which is why I suggest
adding a kmem_cache* argument to unregister_filesystem() for this.
It's a bit awkward, and the fs can pass in NULL if it knows what it's
doing. But it's reliable.
