 I would expect the docs for `GHC.Exts`:

 https://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.8.2/html/libraries/base-4.7.0.0/GHC-
 Exts.html

 to contain all the primops from `GHC.Prim`:

 http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-prim-0.3.1.0/docs/GHC-Prim.html

 as `GHC.Exts` is the recommended module to import the primops from.
 However, `GHC.Exts` are missing loads of the primops.
