[PATCH 1/2] per-cpu semaphores: export symbols to modules

[Stanislav Kinsbursky]

Per-cpu semaphores are desired to be used by NFS kernel server.
As Bruce Fields suggested:

	"The server rpc code goes to some care not to write to any global
	structure, to prevent server threads running on multiple cores from
	bouncing cache lines between them.

	But my understanding is that even down_read() does modify the semaphore.
	So we might want something like the percpu semaphore describe in
	Documentation/percpu-rw-semaphore.txt."


So add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for all publically accessible per-cpu rw semaphores
and move to obj-y so that modules may use this library.
