Hi Chaitanya,

Thanks for the response.

Our driver code is not yet public and so Praveen has explained the
flow of the code. Please let me know is there any other way to get
some help here quickly.
The explanation, while appreciated, doesn't solve the problem here. We
_never_ add any exports for APIs that don't have any in-kernel users.
That's a hard rule that we've had forever. As such, there is not a path
for entry for this particular patch right now. It should be submitted
alongside the upstream submission request for the code using it, as a
preparatory patch.
