Hi,
does anyone know why is sd external? It is mentioned in sd.h,
together with the macro SD_PARTITION that is needed to access it,
but no drivers make use of it. On the other hand, sd_mod does not
export the symbol sd.

Because it was used in both sd.c and sd_ioctl.c.
What is sd_ioctl.c? See any kernel older than 2.3.27.
Today there is no need for this external declaration, I think.
