If everyone (including kbuild folks) is OK with the arch-independent parts of
this series, I'd like to put the first two commits into never-rebased branch
so that individual architecture trees could pull that and apply the
corresponding arch-dependent stuff on top of that; going that way would
minimize the amount of conflicts that would need to be dealt with during
this cycle, but it obviously depends on those first two commits being
acceptable to everyone.  Please, review and comment.

Shortlog:
Al Viro (13):
      [kbuild] handle exports in lib-y objects reliably
      EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm
      x86: move exports to actual definitions
      alpha: move exports to actual definitions
      m68k: move exports to definitions
      s390: move exports to definitions
      arm: move exports to definitions

      ppc: get rid of unreachable abs() implementation

      [sparc] unify 32bit and 64bit string.h
      sparc32: debride memcpy.S a bit
      ia64: move exports to definitions

After several pings by Al (sorry about that!), I got around to review a
rebased version of this patchset at

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git asm-exports

The kbuild commits are good, but since we are close to the end of the
merge window, I will apply them to my kbuild branch after 4.8-rc1.

Thanks,
