Other projects that import procfs, like node_exporter, apparently build for OSs that don't have Statfs_t.Type.

Leads to errors like (for node_exporter):

/go/bin/promu --config .promu.yml build --prefix .build/openbsd-amd64 
 >   node_exporter
# github.com/prometheus/procfs

The convention for naming these files would be fs_linux.go and fs_others.go, see how the naming and tags are done for cpuinfo*.go.

On second thought, this is fine.

@SuperQ I thought about that, but given that FreeBSD/Darwin also have Type, and at least FreeBSD can emulate Linux procfs with the same magic as Linux, didn't seem quite right to make it _linux.go.
