Multiple filesystems can already return EFSCORRUPTED errors to userspace;

I wanted to use EUCLEAN to indicate data corruption in the VFS layer;
Dave Chinner says that I should instead hoist the definitions of
EFSCORRUPTED into the UAPI header and then use EFSCORRUPTED.

This patch is marked for stable backport because it is a prerequisite for
the following patch.
