Wouldn't it be better to export the symbol instead? get_cycles is a low-level time keeping detail that really should not be exported, and at least for RISC-V this would be the only modular user. Once that is sorted out I'll audit other common architectures to drop the export, as it isn't something that should be used in ramdom driver code.
