[PATCH 3.3.0] kernel:kfifo: export __kfifo_max_r symbol.

[Srinivas KANDAGATLA]

From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@xxxxxx>

kfifo_avail expands to __kfifo_max_r which is not an exported symbol.
Any kernel module using kfifo_avail will result in build failures
because of this.
This patch just exports __kfifo_max_r symbol to fix such problems in
future.

This bug was orignially reported by Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
during v4l-dvb tree integration into linux-next.

Hi All, 
A bulid failure during v4l-dvb tree integration into linux-next shows that __kfifo_max_r symbol is not exported.
All the __kifo_* functions declared in kfifo.h are already exported symbols.
I see no reason why __kfifo_max_r should not be exported too.

comments?
