main.c and driver_mips.c use EXPORT_SYMBOL() etc.
so they should include<linux/export.h>.

Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap<redacted>
From this commit message, it appears that every routine that uses EXPORT_SYMBOL() will need to include this header. I looked at modifying rtlwifi and friends to include this header, but found that include/linux/export.h does not exist in any of my source trees. From that I assume that the change will happen in 3.2.

I have prepared a patch, but cannot use it at the moment. Is there somewhere that I should send it?
Hi Larry,

linux/export.h is only in linux-next.  I think that you should just prepare
a linux-next patch for rtlwifi and then push it after Paul Gortmaker's
module.h-split git tree has been merged (it splits module.h into module.h
and export.h), or maybe you could ask Paul to merge your patch into his tree.

[I added Paul to the cc: list.]
