Personally, I hope it is MCU canon, but with the cinematic rights for mutants being owned by Fox, I hope they won't include a mutant lead role to a TV show set in MCU. Remember just because we haven't heard of them doesn't mean they don't exist, this could be the first time we are hearing of mutants, we also don't know when or where Legion takes place. Mutants could have been heard of in other parts of the world, and SHIELD hasn't heard of them yet, or at least the sect that Coulson is apart of due to the whole Inhuman thing going on, and since mutants are rather hidden, and a small race, they are harder to pinpoint so maybe a different sect of SHIELD like the ones who found out about Scorch knew a few mutants, and are keeping it away from Coulson's SHIELD due to how busy they are, and they aren't even sure what causes mutants, or what they are exactly.
