That is true [ I missed that tiny detail ;-) ] in either case you would need create a custom kernel with the function exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL().

Why do you need to obtain a list of available filesystems from a driver? Shouldn't you handle this in an application instead?

Can you please explain, why you specifically mentioned the kernel 2.6.24 or below? What is difference between 2.6.24 kernel and latest kernel in this regards?

Only that the get_filesystem_list() prototype is not in <linux/fs.h> in 2.6.24 so that you need to declare it extern before using it yourself. The advice wasn't applicable though, given that you have the prototype in linux/fs.h. That EXPORT_SYMBOL() thing is the only thing relevant.
