Subject: [PATCH] livepatch: old_name@..._addr scheme in livepatch sysfs directory

The following directory structure will allow for cases when the same
function name exists in a single object.
	/sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>/<function@...ress>

An example of this issue is documented here:
	https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/issues/493
