Hello Jens,

Since this patch is the first patch that introduces a call to blk_queue_exit()
from a module other than the block layer core, shouldn't this patch export the
blk_queue_exit() function? An attempt to build mq-deadline as a module resulted
in the following:

ERROR: "blk_queue_exit" [block/mq-deadline.ko] undefined!
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:91: __modpost] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:1198: modules] Error 2
Execution failed: make all

Bart.
