Subject: [PATCH v7 4/7] livepatch: Allow to unpatch only functions of the given type

From: Jason Baron <jbaron@...mai.com>

We are going to add a feature called atomic replace. It will allow to
create a patch that would replace all already registered patches.
For this, we will need to dynamically create funcs and objects
for functions that are not longer patched.

The dynamically allocated objects will not longer be needed once
the patch is applied.

This patch allows to unpatch functions of the given type. It might
cause that the obj->patched flag is true even when some listed
functions are not longer patched. This is fine as long as the
unpatched funcs' structures are removed right after. It will
be the case. Anyway, it is safe. In the worst case, it will
not be possible to enable the disabled functions.
