Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Drop __exit attribute on btrfs_exit_compress

As this function is called in some error paths while not
removing the module, the __exit attribute prevents the kernel
image from linking when btrfs is compiled in statically.

I am not completely sure whether this has already been reported,
but googling around did not show any traces.

Best regards,
Alexey
