Yes, sorry, it's in my for-next/perf branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git/commit/?h=for-next/perf&id=8b0c93c20ef78f15d8b760964ff79bda7f68c610

which is now in -next.

I'm happy to take the mcpm patch on top with your ack, but if you have
conflicting changes (or would prefer not to export the symbol to modules)
then I can just revert the patch in my tree for now.
