The lkdtm module performs tests against executable memory ranges, so it needs to flush the icache for proper behaviors. Other architectures already export this, so do the same for MIPS.

Have you run this thru scripts/checkpatch.pl? It would have told you that an export should immediately follow the corresponding function body, AFAIK.
Hm, it doesn't now but definitely used to...
Decided to check Documentation/CodingStyle, and it still codifies this:
In source files, separate functions with one blank line. If the function is exported, the EXPORT* macro for it should follow immediately after the closing function brace line. E.g.:
int system_is_up(void) { return system_state == SYSTEM_RUNNING; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(system_is_up);
Yup, thanks. I know the style, but it seemed from the source file that the style was to declare the function pointers in bulk, and then explicitly export them in the next section, so I continued that style. For example:
void (*flush_cache_sigtramp)(unsigned long addr); void (*local_flush_data_cache_page)(void * addr); void (*flush_data_cache_page)(unsigned long addr); void (*flush_icache_all)(void);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(local_flush_data_cache_page); EXPORT_SYMBOL(flush_data_cache_page); EXPORT_SYMBOL(flush_icache_all);
Regardless, I'm happy to stick it in the middle of the function pointers if that's preferred.
Ah, that's a variable! I didn't realize that. Looking into checkpatch.pl, it should warn about variables as well though... but it doesn't.
