Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching
Pull livepatching updates from Jiri Kosina: - RO/NX attribute fixes for patch module relocations from Josh Poimboeuf. As part of this effort, module.c has been cleaned up as well and livepatching is piggy-backing on this cleanup. Rusty is OK with this whole lot going through livepatching tree. - symbol disambiguation support from Chris J Arges. That series is also Reviewed-by: Miroslav Benes <mbenes@suse.cz> but this came in only after I've alredy pushed out. Didn't want to rebase because of that, hence I am mentioning it here. - symbol lookup fix from Miroslav Benes * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching: livepatch: Cleanup module page permission changes module: keep percpu symbols in module's symtab module: clean up RO/NX handling. module: use a structure to encapsulate layout. gcov: use within_module() helper. module: Use the same logic for setting and unsetting RO/NX livepatch: function,sympos scheme in livepatch sysfs directory livepatch: add sympos as disambiguator field to klp_reloc livepatch: add old_sympos as disambiguator field to klp_func
