Xu Yang 08bc149837 of: kobj: export of_node_ktype for use by modules
of_node_init() is a static inline that references of_node_ktype when
CONFIG_OF_KOBJ=y. Any module that calls of_node_init() will therefore
have an unresolved reference to of_node_ktype at load time, because
the symbol is defined in drivers/of/kobj.c but was never exported.

This causes a modpost build error when CONFIG_OF_KOBJ=y and
CONFIG_DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST=m:

  ERROR: modpost: "of_node_ktype"
  [drivers/base/test/property-entry-test.ko] undefined!

Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_IF_KUNIT(of_node_ktype) so that modules such as the
KUnit property-entry test can call of_node_init() without hitting this
linker error.
