I have met this issue when change code in boot/compressed/kaslr.c.
I remember Ingo merged my patch and found this build error. Since if
CONFIG_MODULES=n EXPORT_SYMBOL is defined as empty in
include/linux/export.h, that's why you can only meet it only if
CONFIG_MODULES=y.
I remember I just muted it with below code, please check commit
d52e7d5a95.
+#define _LINUX_EXPORT_H
+#define EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym)

x86/KASLR: Parse all 'memmap=' boot option entries
Later in commit f922c4abdf76, Ard added a new switch __DISABLE_EXPORTS.
So you can just add #define __DISABLE_EXPORTS into misc.c. Then you
don't need to copy those lib functions to boot. Maintaining two copies
might have trouble if it has updates later.
