You are confusing yourself with terminology. You need to compile the
driver IN, not make that symbol static.

Well, if you can find out how export of symbols is supposed to be done
between compiled-in kernel drivers, that would be helpful. I would have
supposed that the declaration at the end of the md.c file did it:

  #ifdef MD_BITMAP_SUPPORT
  MD_EXPORT_SYMBOL(md_throttle);
  #endif /* MD_BITMAP_SUPPORT */

Does it not?
