yeah, you are right about __wake_up_sync. We'll likely remove sync
wakeups anyway, and the export is GPL, so it's not a big issue.
The point remains for cond_resched_softirq() though - it's a symmetric
export to cond_resched()'s export. (I think you should smarten your
scripts about such 'API family' exports, to avoid false positives.)
