Re: [PATCH 1/2] dcdbas: Export functionality for use in other drivers

[Matthew Garrett]

dcdbas: Export functionality for use in other drivers
    
The dcdbas code allows calls to be made into the firmware on Dell systems.
Exporting this to other drivers allows them to implement Dell-specific
functionality in a safe way.

Only change is the s/EXPORT_SYMBOL/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL/. The firmware 
subdir doesn't seem to have a separate maintainer, so I guess 
driver-core is fine?
