Thanks for your comments. I must be spoiled by net-dev maintainers. I
used to submit the patch this way thought my linux email in the past
many years. So I need to reply on the changelog for the actual patch? I
hope I won't make any more suck submissions again.

I will try to explain more details why this API needs to be exported.

Thanks again.
