Subject: [GIT PULL] livepatching for 4.11

Linus,

please pull from

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching.git for-linus

to receive livepatching tree updates for 4.11:

=====
- removal of dead code from Kamalesh Babulal
- documentation update from Miroslav Benes
=====

Sidenote: the the extension of the class of patches we will be able to 
apply ("consistency model") is still in the works; there are only a few 
things left though, I currently expect this might hit 4.12 merge window.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Kamalesh Babulal (1):
      powerpc/livepatch: Remove klp_write_module_reloc() stub

Miroslav Benes (1):
      livepatch: doc: remove the limitation for schedule() patching
