Commit Message

Build the source file always, as by putting it into an archive it still
won't be linked into final binaries when not needed. This way possible
build breakage will be easier to notice, and it's more consistent with
us unconditionally building other library kind of code (e.g. sort() or
bsearch()).

While moving the source file, take the opportunity and drop the
pointless EXPORT_SYMBOL().

It looks like the commit message was duplicated.

You are mentioning the EXPORT_SYMBOL() but...

Indeed - no idea how it has happened (also in at least one other
patch in this series, as I've noticed now).

Well, not sure what to say. But anyway, I've added half a sentence
to also mention this.
