Subject: inter_module_register substitute in 2.6 kernel

Hello,
Is there any substitue of inter_module_register, inter_module_unregister, inter_module_put and inter_module_get_request  functions in 2.6 or only we can implement it through EXPORT_SYMBOL.
I am little bit confuse about functionality of above function in 2.4.
In 2.4 all symbols inside the module is publicly exported by default still there is functionality like inter_module_xxx.
what is differenct between inter_module_xxx and EXPORT_SYMBOL and why it is deprecated in 2.6.
Murtuja
