Make zap_completion_queue() a globally visible symbol by changing its
linkage to non-static and adding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
This is a true netpoll function that will be needed by non-netpoll
functions that will be moved away from netpoll.
This will allow moving the skb pool management to netconsole, mainly
find_skb(), which invokes zap_completion_queue(), and will be moved to
netconsole.
