To be precise, I am going to replace:

	samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.c
	samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.c
	samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-busymod.c

with a completely different modules because I am reworking the
callbacks API.

All other sample modules are going to stay.

Feel free to remove livepatch-callbacks-busymod.c from the patchset.
But also feel free to keep it. The API rework goes slowly. I am not
sure if it would be ready for 6.14.

Best Regards,
Petr
