Subject: [GIT PULL] livepatching regression fix

Linus,

please pull from

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

to receive

==========
- regression (from 4.4) fix for ordering issue, introduced by an earlier 
  ftrace change, that broke live patching of modules. The fix replaces 
  the ftrace module notifier by direct call in order to make the ordering 
  guaranteed and well-defined. The patch, from Jessica Yu, has been acked 
  both by Steven and Rusty

- error message fix from Miroslav Benes
==========

Thanks.
