[RFC][PATCH] Exporting ___raw_readw and friends on Alpha

Hi all,

I've been trying to use a NE2000 compatible PCMCIA card on my UDB,
using the pcnet_cs driver.

Two symbols were missing from the export list : ___raw_readw and
___raw_writew.

Once these symbols have been added to alpha_ksyms, everything is OK,
and I can enjoy my Multia with 4 ethernet interfaces :-).

Diging through the list archive, I've found the very same patch being
posted by Jan-Benedict Glaw (jbglaw@lug-owl.de) more than a year ago,
for framebuffer purposes.

Is there any reason why this patch hasn't been applied ? It should be
noted that arch/sh is exporting these symbols too.

Thanks for any comment.

M.
