For 2.4 you want to use it whenever possible and a file exports no
symbols. For 2.5 EXPORT_NO_SYMBOLS is the automatic default behaviour so
you can lose the line

This was clearly a 2.5 patch, where we currently want to get rid of
EXPORT_NO_SYMBOLS.

why?
other than since it's the default, there's no need to define it in 2.5
kernels.

Completely removing it means driver maintainers need to keep
separate 2.4/2.6 versions of their drivers. The extra EXPORT_NO_SYMBOLS
is harmless, and allows single source, multi kernel version drivers.
