Subject: [PATCH 00/14] KVM: x86: Remove unnecessary exported symbols

Inspired by the Sean's minor fix [1], more unnecessary (from a GPL
developer's perspective) exported symbols could be cleaned up
(automation to find out true positives is possible). This move helps reduce
the attack surface of KVM modules and guides more developers to practice
the principle of low coupling in the KVM context.
