this is automatically done if the symbol is exported, no extra action
needed from you *at all*. 

(and if the symbol isn't exported you have a problem, you should really
get it exported, which usually is very easy to just include with your
patch when you post it to lkml for inclusion. You need to think about it
though, if NOBODY is using the symbol, maybe it is the wrong API level
to use)
