Almost all existed struct_ops users(hid, sched_ext, ...) need the two APIs.

In-tree hid-bpf code(drivers/hid/bpf/hid_bpf_struct_ops.c) can't be built

The patch looks fine. I don't see "config HID_BPF" can be built as a module now
though that could expose this issue. Did I miss something?

Yeah, this patch doesn't try to change HID_BPF yet, and it can be thought
as one struct_ops module prep patch.

The issue itself is observed when I write ublk-bpf since ublk is one module
and struct_ops is allowed to be registered in the module.

Good to hear struct_ops find another potential use case. The ublk-bpf development cannot continue without building as kmod?

Instead of exporting it now and pending without a user, I will wait till the first in-tree kmod use case comes up first.
