Otherwise modules that use these arithmetic operations will fail to link. We accomplish this with the usual EXPORT_SYMBOL, which on most architectures goes in the .S file but the ARM64 maintainers prefer that insead it goes into arm64ksyms. While we're at it, we also fix this up to use SPDX, and I personally choose to relicense this as GPL2||BSD so that these symbols don't need to be export_symbol_gpl, so all modules can use the routines, since these are important general purpose compiler-generated function calls.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
