These can be unexported too:

extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_es0_keys[];
extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_es0_actions[];
extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_is1_keys[];
extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_is1_actions[];
extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_is2_keys[];
extern const struct vcap_field vsc7514_vcap_is2_actions[];

I guess we make exceptions for the 24 hour reposting rule when the patch
has been reviewed?
