You are correct, details below...

Here is the combined branch that I tested yesterday:
https://github.com/joe-lawrence/linux/tree/jp-v2-klp-convert
That combined WIP klp-convert changes merged on top of Josh's v2 patches
(and follow-ups) posted here. Before I merged with Josh's changes, the
klp-convert code + tests ran without incident. There was a slight merge
conflict, but I hope that's not related to this crash. Perhaps the test
case is shaky and Josh's changes expose an underlying issue?
More info on the test case:
# TEST: klp-convert symbols
https://github.com/joe-lawrence/linux/blob/jp-v2-klp-convert/tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test-livepatch.sh#L172
which loads an ordinary kernel module (test_klp_convert_mod) and then
this livepatch module, which contains references to both vmlinux
symbols and a few found in the first module:
https://github.com/joe-lawrence/linux/blob/jp-v2-klp-convert/lib/livepatch/test_klp_convert1.c
The livepatch's init function calls klp_enable_patch() as usual, and
then for testing purposes calls a few functions that required
klp-relocations. I don't know if real livepatch modules would ever need
to do this from init code, but I did so just to make the test code
simpler.
This is what klp-convert created for klp-relocations:
% readelf --wide --relocs test_klp_convert1.ko
...
Relocation section '.klp.rela.vmlinux..text.unlikely' at offset 0x52000 contains 1 entry:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend
0000000000000002 000000340000001a R_390_GOTENT 0000000000000000 .klp.sym.vmlinux.saved_command_line,0 + 2
Relocation section '.klp.rela.test_klp_convert_mod..text.unlikely' at offset 0x52018 contains 4 entries:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend
000000000000008a 0000003b00000014 R_390_PLT32DBL 0000000000000000 .klp.sym.test_klp_convert_mod.get_homonym_string,1 + 2

I can rework the test case to simplify and debug few things. Let me
know if you have any specific ideas in mind.
