&lt;linux/export.h&gt; is the right header to include for using
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. &lt;linux/module.h&gt; includes much more bloat.

<title>rust: add `build_error` crate</title>

The `build_error` crate provides a function `build_error` which
will panic at compile-time if executed in const context and,
by default, will cause a build error if not executed at compile
time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call.

The `CONFIG_RUST_BUILD_ASSERT_ALLOW` kernel option allows to
relax the default build failure and convert it to a runtime
check. If the runtime check fails, `panic!` will be called.

Its functionality will be exposed to users as a couple macros in
the `kernel` crate in the following patch, thus some documentation
here refers to them for simplicity.

All symbols are reexported reusing the `EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL` macro
from C. The lists of symbols are generated on the fly.

There are three main sets of symbols to distinguish:

  - The ones from the `core` and `alloc` crates (from the Rust
    standard library). The code is licensed as Apache/MIT.

  - The ones from our abstractions in the `kernel` crate.

  - The helpers (already exported since they are not generated).

We export everything as GPL. This ensures we do not mistakenly
expose GPL kernel symbols/features as non-GPL, even indirectly.
