It does not make sense to apply EXPORT_SYMBOL to a static symbol.  Fixes
this build error:

drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl3945-base.c:1697: error: __ksymtab_iwl3945_rx_queue_reset causes a section type conflict

This obsoletes 6269b731560d69c5eaa929909891edec39496d71, which was
misattributed as a compiler bug.

At least in my tree the function isn't static...(yet I still got the
compiler error)?
