True, but this looks like something which out-of-tree code could possibly
be using.  I'd prefer to see this one get the deprecated_for_modules
twelve-month treatment.

Or we just leave it as-is.  It depends whether insert_resource is a
sensible part of the resource management API (I think it is).  If so,
then we should just leave it exported, whether or not any in-kernel moduels
happen to be using it at this point in time.
