Hi,

Is that true that every time I do EXPORT_SYMBOL(my_symbol), I should
check that `my_symbol' is not already defined?
<<<yes, this is true>>>>

There are so many drivers in the kernel. How do developers make sure
that their symbols are unique?
<<< yes, there are so many drivers in the kernel but only those symbols are exported which required by other drivers eg. you can't define a function printk() with same argument>>>
