Ehrmm...
Let's see (this is from the v2.4-test tree, not v2.2.xx):
ntfs hpfs ext2(fs) qnx4(fs) ramfs romfs umsdos vfat sysv(fs) coda adfs affs cramfs isofs jffs ncpfs
Not to be picky, but I'd say there are more 4-letter abbrevations than three letter abbr's.
befs (not beos; the fs should be there to stress that it is a filesystem) is a good name I think. beosfs might be a good name too.

Well, it's nice to hear you're working on it.
