[PATCH] export.h: remove VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR()

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Sat Aug 18 2018 - 18:36:33 EST


With the special case handling for Blackfin and Metag was removed by
commit 94e58e0ac312 ("export.h: remove code for prefixing symbols with
underscore"), VMLINUX_SYMBOL() is no-no.

Replace the remaining usages, then remove the definition of
VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().

<asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h> no longer needs to include <linux/export.h>.
