Re: livepatch: old_name.number scheme in livepatch sysfs directory

+++ Chris J Arges [02/11/15 11:58 -0600]:
The following directory structure will allow for cases when the same
function name exists in a single object.
/sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>/<function.number>

The number is incremented on each known initialized func kobj thus creating
unique names in this case.

An example of this issue is documented here:
https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/issues/493

Thanks Chris. Verified that the patch fixes the panic caused by
multiple functions with the same name and object.
