The added exports in ldiskfs require a fragile amount of context in order to apply properly. By moving all of the added EXPORT_SYMBOL calls into a new fs/ext4/exports.c, we can make patching the ext4 tree slightly less fragile. |

The new RHEL7 and SuSE12 work moves exports out into a separate file. We can consider that work as covering this. |
