GHC.Exts docs don't contain all primops

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.
