Removing this function breaks the library ABI and potentially such project. For example, I call conf_set_all_new_symbols() from my libbuild2-kconfig build system module[1]. I know you don't care much for such out-of-kernel usage, still, this (and the previous commit) feels like superficial reshuffling of code and perhaps it's worth not breaking things unless there is something substantial to gain?
