clk_register_composite() will be used in mediatek's
clock kernel module, so export it to GPL modules.

This is because Mediatek clock driver would be built as kernel module,
so clk_register_composite() used should be exported, then we could use
it. 

Please refer:
[PATCH 2/2] clk: mediatek: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL for kernel module support 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/7/1/124
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(mtk_clk_register_composites);

clk_register_composite() is used by Mediatek clk kernel module.
From export symbol: mtk_clk_register_composites.

Perfect.  Thanks for the clarification.

Anything else you need from us Stephen?

Is the mediatek driver compilable as a module? Last time I checked it
wasn't a module. I want an upstream modular driver that uses the symbol.
Otherwise we're exporting symbols when it doesn't need to be.
