Patch to export required symbols

Patch to export required symbols in nvidia.ko and nvidia-modeset.ko for their
consumers.
This would fix loading nvidia-drm.ko and nvidia-modeset.ko at least OPTION
LINUX is disabled (non-default) on x11/nvidia-kmod[-devel].

As my main branch (of base) environment is quite outdated, tested on stable/15
by intentionally set "debug.link_elf_obj_leak_locals=0" in /boot/loader.conf.

I think keeping OPTION LINUX enabled for main at commit base   
e00a781c216cb12603a0a71c9ca293dde3e06250 and later, but not tested.
