- [High] New EXPORT_SYMBOL() with no in-tree consumer:
  `EXPORT_SYMBOL(rvu_mbox_handler_nix_cn10k_aq_enq)` is added in…  
Can i post this patch to net-next as consumer is out of tree ?
No, we don't carry exports for OOT code upstream.
Btw, someone really should do an audit of all the octeontx2
exports.  There is a lot of them, they are non-GPL and non-namespaces
which is a bit of a red flag.

Similar the drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/prestera is really weirdly
split into two drivers for no reason at all.
