Subject: lguest preparation: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL 5 functions
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

lguest does some fairly lowlevel things to support a host, which normal
modules don't need:

math_state_restore:
	When the guest triggers a Device Not Available fault, we need
	to be able to restore the FPU

__put_task_struct:
	We need to hold a reference to another task for inter-guest
	I/O, and put_task_struct() is an inline function which calls
	__put_task_struct.

access_process_vm:
	We need to access another task for inter-guest I/O.

map_vm_area & __get_vm_area:
	We need to map the switcher shim (ie. monitor) at 0xFFC01000.
