Subject: Re: livepatch: reuse module loader code to write relocations

I'll note here that this patchset has the same problem that current
livepatch has in that it will be unable to handle duplicate symbols
within the same object (i.e. sysfs will be unable to create entries
with the same name and livepatch errors out). After the Chris's sympos
patchset gets merged I should be able to rebase this patchset on top
of it to resolve the duplicate symbol issue.

Note #2: When Josh's module cleanup patches get merged, I'll swap out these
set_page_attribute() calls for (un)set_module_core_ro_nx().
