Yeah, that matches what others (Daniel and Jon) have suggested in
another thread. I'll echo what I said in [0], which is essentially that
I agree with you all that something which more closely resembles
EXPORT_SYMBOL* is a better approach, and am fine with tabling this for
now until I have a bit more bandwidth to work on something that's a more
complete / appropriate solution.

Thanks for the review! Will CC you on the v3, whenever that is.
