Yup. Will change.

I didn't look that hard at this. Just kept the same because the
function I was replacing was also __visible.
But it looks like this commit:
80a3e3949b8f ("x86/extable: Mark exception handler functions visible")
shouldn't have touched this function. This one is only called from C code,
not from assembler like the others.
Will drop the __visible (and note in commit comment)
Thanks
