That was done considering that ptep_modify_prot_start/commit was defined
in asm-generic/pgtable.h. I was trying to make sure I didn't break
anything with the patch. Also s390 do have that EXPORT_SYMBOL() for the
same. hugetlb just inherited that.

If you feel strongly about it, I can drop the EXPORT_SYMBOL().
