This does not make any sense. Why would we export a trivial stub which
just returns NULL?

The right thing to do is to make that an inline function in the relevant
header file.

Unrelated comment change which is not explained in the changelog. Please
make that a separate patch as it has absolutely nothing to do with the
stub function issue.
