IMO, only functions that are needed by modules should be exported.
When building modules under unicore32 & pkunity-soc, we only need
find_next_bit and find_next_zero_bit exported at present, and if new
functions are required, I am going to add them in the same time.
In fact, I think, the 'arch-generic' ksyms.c is a better idea.
