True, but this looks like something which out-of-tree code could possibly be using. I'd prefer to see this one get the deprecated_for_modules twelve-month treatment.
Or we just leave it as-is. It depends whether insert_resource is a sensible part of the resource management API (I think it is). If so, then we should just leave it exported, whether or not any in-kernel moduels happen to be using it at this point in time.
