But why is it exported at all?  No one is using it in this patch.

It's used later in the series by the message queue driver. The idea here now
is that gunyah.ko is capable of identifying Gunyah and other drivers can
check if they are individually compatible with the reported version of
Gunyah.

Then export it when you use it.  If we had taken just half of the
series, then this would be an export that no one used, which is not ok.

thanks,
