Again, no.  kvm_vcpu_is_reset_bsp() is declared by kvm_vcpu_is_reset_bsp().  The
lack of "static" is the first clue, and the fact that KVM compiles without issue
today is the second clue.  EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() only affects resolving module
dependencies, it doesn't provide any information to the compiler about function
prototypes.
