Subject: [PATCH 0/3] net: unexport some symbols that are annotated __init


This patch set fixes odd combinations
of EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init.

Checking this in modpost is a good thing and I really wanted to do it,
but Linus Torvalds imposes a very strict rule, "No new warning".

I'd like the maintainer to kindly pick this up and send a fixes pull request.

Unless I eliminate all the sites of warnings beforehand,
Linus refuses to re-enable the modpost check.   [1]
