The function skcipher_walk_next declared as static and marked as
EXPORT_SYMBOL. It's a bit confusing since export symbol means that
we want others to use this function. The area of visibility for such
function is its .c file and all other modules. Other *.c files of the
same module can't use it, despite all other modules can. Relying on
that such behavior was not the original intention, the patch just
removes the static keyword.

Why not remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL instead?  It has no users outside the file.
