No objection to export the symbol. But it is almost always better to add
the export in the patch that actually uses it. The intention is much
more clear that way.

Yeah, but I guess this way people might take more likely a look as if
this would be squashed into a

patch. At least that's what my experience tells me :)

If there are hard feelings, I can squash (but I am afraid it will be
even harder to get ACKs/RBs for core-mm changes that way ...)

Thanks for having a look!
