It is detected, just that it doesn't actually error out until the
linking stage.
Without "#include <linux/export.h>" in security/device_cgroup.c (I
apply aufs3-standalone.patch after sed s/EXPORT_SYMBOL/\&_GPL/, but
that doesn't make a difference here):
CC security/lsm_audit.o
CC security/device_cgroup.o
/.../security/device_cgroup.c:503:1: warning: data definition has no type or
storage class [enabled by default]
/.../security/device_cgroup.c:503:1: warning: type defaults to 'int' in
declaration of 'EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL' [-Wimplicit-int]
/.../security/device_cgroup.c:503:1: warning: parameter names (without types)

LD security/built-in.o
With #include <linux/export.h> in security/device_cgroup.c:
CC security/lsm_audit.o
CC security/device_cgroup.o
LD security/built-in.o
[no warnings in fs/aufs/]
Before 3.2-rcX, EXPORT_SYMBOL/ EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL was defined by
module.h (and by chance the other files for which
aufs3-standalone.patch adds EXPORT_SYMBOL already include
linux/export.h on their own), there are a couple of equivalent changes
in 3.2~rc as well[1]; this becomes necessary because of[2].
