Which module is going to use this? I failed to find it, but I may have
missed something.

The actual reason for this reply: this patches causes a compiler warning
here, likely due to lacking include for EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL:

  CC      arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.o
/data/linux-kvm/arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.c:136:1: warning: data
definition has no type or storage class
/data/linux-kvm/arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.c:136:1: warning: type defaults
to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL’
/data/linux-kvm/arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.c:136:1: warning: parameter
names (without types) in function declaration
