Adding -D__EXPORT_SYMBOLS to KBUILD_CFLAGS in arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile fixes that, and then you don't have to define it here. Also, __DISABLE_EXPORTS does not currently inhibit MODULE_INFO, so a .modinfo section gets emitted into misc.o. I *think* this is harmless and it will get discarded when building compressed/vmlinux, but thought I'd point it out.
