From e26fa546042add70944d018b930530d16b3cf626 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gary Guo Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2024 17:51:32 +0100 Subject: rust: kbuild: auto generate helper exports This removes the need to explicitly export all symbols. Generate helper exports similarly to what's currently done for Rust crates. These helpers are exclusively called from within Rust code and therefore can be treated similar as other Rust symbols.
