-header-y += msr-index.h

I see it on my desktop as /usr/include/asm/msr-index.h and it's been there at
least four years - and as such it's part of the UAPI.  I don't think you can
remove it unless you can guarantee there are no userspace users.

I keep it in the v2 of the series, but the maintainer, Borislav Petkov, asks me
to un-export it.

I will follow the maintainer decision.

I'm not the maintainer. I simply think that exporting that file was
wrong because it if we change something in it, we will break userspace.
And that should not happen - if userspace needs MSRs, it should do its
own defines.
