Hi.

> Could you drop the solved ones from the list?

Yes, of course. Do you want me to remove all symbols fixed with patches
or only those are in-tree now?

Should it be like this:
1. "torture_onoff_cleanup" [kernel/torture]
"torture_shuffle_cleanup" [kernel/torture]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/4/411 (accepted)
2. "LZ4HC_setExternalDict" [lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/8/842
3. "drm_client_close" [drivers/gpu/drm/drm]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/3/758 (accepted)
4. "ahci_em_messages" [drivers/ata/libahci]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/10/550 (reviewed)
5. "ftrace_set_clr_event" [vmlinux]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/4/609 (reviewed)
6. "rmi_2d_sensor_set_input_params" [drivers/input/rmi4/rmi_core]
Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/8/999 (accepted)
10. "empty_zero_page" [vmlinux]
11. "phys_base" [vmlinux]
12. "hypercall_page" [vmlinux]

Or like this:
1. "empty_zero_page" [vmlinux]
2. "phys_base" [vmlinux]
3. "hypercall_page" [vmlinux]

Well, I could remove this list at all. It seems like the following list
with existing commits is enough to show the problem of static exported
functions.

I will resend the patch shortly after.

Regards,
Denis
