For an identifier to appear in /proc/ksyms, it is not sufficient to be
non-static. It must be exported as well using the EXPORT_SYMBOL() macro.
So if that function is not marked exported, then it will not appear in
/proc/ksyms.
It is not necessary for the EXPORT_SYMBOL() macro to appear in the same
file where the function is defined. Most kernel symbols are exported in
the kernel/ksyms.c file, but some are exported from other places.
