EEH kernel services are inconsistently exported by the kernel. eeh_check_failure is exported for any use, but eeh_dev_check_failure is exported only for GPL use. While eeh_check_failure is implemented for a specific purpose to be used by services such as readl, it is not suited for a purpose where caller needs eeh status. This functionality is provided by eeh_dev_check_failure.
This patch relaxes the export for eeh_dev_check_failure to make it consistent with eeh_check_failure() and usable by non-GPL modules.
