workqueue: Make schedule_work() available again to non GPL modules
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit 8425e3d ("workqueue: inline trivial wrappers") changed
schedule_work() and schedule_delayed_work() to inline wrappers,
but these rely on some symbols that are EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, while
the original functions were EXPORT_SYMBOL.  This has the effect of
changing the licensing requirement for these functions and making
them unavailable to non GPL modules.

Make them available again by removing the restriction on the
required symbols.
