The use of EXPORT_SYMBOL() is not required in 2.4.
It is good to export it, for you to know that it can be used by other modules. It has been enforced strictly in 2.6.
Even in 2.6, the use of EXPORT SYMBOL is only required if a kernel symbol is to be used by a dynamically loaded module or viceversa. Right?
