This patch does not have a module consumer for
free_devmap_managed_page(), so the export should move to the patch
that needs the new export.
Also the only reason that put_devmap_managed_page() is EXPORT_SYMBOL
instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL is that there was no practical way to
hide the devmap details from evey module in the kernel that did
put_page(). I would expect free_devmap_managed_page() to
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL if it is not inlined into an existing exported
static inline api.
