module: Provide EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES() helper



[ Upstream commit 707f853d ]

Helper macro to more easily limit the export of a symbol to a given
list of modules.

Eg:

  EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES(preempt_notifier_inc, "kvm");

will limit the use of said function to kvm.ko, any other module trying
to use this symbol will refure to load (and get modpost build
failures).
