This is not how we do things.

When the HIP implementation is submitted for inclusion, the module
exports can be added, not before.

I am sorry but this somewhat conflicts with your earlier statement:

We took an huge effort in our project to move the HIP implementation to

Miika, where are your other patches on top of this?
This kind of change might be okay, but it must be along with
its users, at least.
