module: Rename EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES to EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES

Christoph suggested that the explicit _GPL_ can be dropped from the
module namespace export macro, as it's intended for in-tree modules
only. It would be possible to restrict it technically, but it was
pointed out [2] that some cases of using an out-of-tree build of an
in-tree module with the same name are legitimate. But in that case those
also have to be GPL anyway so it's unnecessary to spell it out in the
macro name.

 Symbols exported using this macro are put into a module namespace. This

 The macro takes a comma separated list of module names, allowing only those
 modules to access this symbol. Simple tail-globs are supported.
 
 For example::
 
-  EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES(preempt_notifier_inc, "kvm,kvm-*")
+  EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES(preempt_notifier_inc, "kvm,kvm-*")
