Subject: [PATCH] blkio: Fix linux-next build failure after merge of block tree

After merging the block tree, 20100414's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

ERROR: "get_gendisk" [block/blk-cgroup.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "sched_clock" [block/blk-cgroup.ko] undefined!

This happens because the two symbols aren't exported and hence not available
when blk-cgroup code is built as a module. I've tried to stay consistent with
the use of EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL with the other symbols in the
respective files.
