- Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For that
- reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This option is
- provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case some external
- kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you encounter such
- a case in your module, consider if you are actually using the right API.
- (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using this in a module, there is
- a pretty good chance it's actually the wrong interface to use)
- If you really need the symbol, please send a mail to the linux kernel
- mailing list mentioning the symbol and why you really need it, and what
- the merge plan to the mainline kernel for your module is.
