Hi,
I think it will work. In fact, I'm sure because I've tested it. But
don't do that, it's not logic :)
In fact, the function EXPORT_SYMBOL creates a struct with the adress of
the function and puts it in the ksym table. So the function will be
avalaible, even if it's a static one.
Static is just an operator of visibilityof the variable (and it says
that the memory is persistent too but that's another problem)
Regards,
