Do we need a kernel version bump just to add symbols?  Old modules
without localcount(9) won't be affected by the new symbols; any new
modules using localcount(9) will fail to load in old kernels anyway
because they refer to missing symbols.

Otherwise, sounds good, and thanks for all your effort doing the hard
work to make this happen!
