While you're at it, if you want to try it, you could see if you can
improve the situation more by looking at symbol_get() users that remain
and seeing if you can instead fix it with proper Kconfig dependency and
at build time. Then we can just remove it as well.

Sorry for the late reply.

Luis, can you give more details of your idea? I re-read it once, then
came back and still don't understand.

I see that there are ~10 users for symbol_get() currently. Do you want
to stringify symbol names at build time to completely remove
symbol_get() from module.h? Correct me if I'm wrong since using of a
fuction which is not declared anywhere sounds confusing.
