In general, it would be good if you could just reorder your functions
so that you don't need any forward declarations like these. It makes
reviewing from bottom to top a little easier and it becomes obvious
that there are no recursions in the code.

Iirc, file_operations should be const.

Since this is meant to be a generic interface that can be used
from other subsystems, a kerneldoc style comment would be nice

panic() is a little harsh from a loadable module. If you mean
the aino support to be used as a module, this should probably
just return an error.

but since the Makefile always has it as built-in, maybe you should
instead just kill the exit function and use fs_initcall instead
of init_module().
