Subject[PATCH 07/11] asmlinkage, module: Make ksymtab and kcrctab symbols and __this_module __visible
Date
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Make the ksymtab symbols for EXPORT_SYMBOL visible.
This prevents the LTO compiler from adding a .NUMBER prefix,
which avoids various problems in later export processing.
