Export eventfd_wake_count so that some modules can use
the eventfd_signal_count() to check whether the
eventfd_signal() call should be deferred to a safe context.

And this matches the comment inside eventfd_signal():

    /*
 * Deadlock or stack overflow issues can happen if we recurse here
 * through waitqueue wakeup handlers. If the caller users 
potentially

 * nested waitqueues with custom wakeup handlers, then it should
 * check eventfd_signal_count() before calling this function. If
 * it returns true, the eventfd_signal() call should be 
deferred to a

 * safe context.
 */


So:
