I don't see getting them exported flying, especially not in the
timeframe we've got for the merge window.  Keeping them non-exported has
been a deliberate decision on the part of the genirq maintainers.  I'll
send a patch making it built in.

Given the typical applications for these parts building the driver in
isn't the end of the world - there's a reasonable chance it'll be forced
built in for other reasons due to device-specific configuration.
