If we move call_usermodehelper_fns() to kmod.c file and EXPORT_SYMBOL it
we can avoid exporting all it's helper functions:
call_usermodehelper_setup
call_usermodehelper_setfns
call_usermodehelper_exec
And make all of them static to kmod.c

Since the optimizer will see all these as a single call site it will
inline them inside call_usermodehelper_fns().  So we loose the call to
_fns but gain 3 calls to the helpers.  (Not that it matters)
