So I'm speaking nonsense apparently. I suggested taking them because
the module patches were based on modules-next. But Miroslav correctly
pointed out that these patches still depend on livepatch removing
module_disable_ro() usage before we can even remove them from
module.c.

So ignore what I said earlier, the whole patchset should be applied
together (I'm assuming the livepatching for-next branch). In any case,
should there be any conflicts with modules-next they should be easy to
resolve. Sorry for the noise!
