Previous patchset (v5) found here:
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1458157628-8264-1-git-send-email-jeyu@redhat.com

v6:
 - Since we hard-code the field widths for the objname and symbol name
   for the sscanf() calls, which are supposed to correspond to the values
   of MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN, use BUILD_BUG_ON() to detect when
   the values of these constants deviate from the expected values.
 - Squash the sample livepatch module patch into patch 4
   ("livepatch: reuse module loader code to write relocations") so 
   git bisects don't break
 - Don't need the klp_buf struct, just use plain char arrays to hold the
   output of sscanf(). Also, no need to clear the bufs after every
   invocation, as sscanf() takes care to put a null byte at the end of
   the bufs.
 - Fix compiler kbuild errors for the !CONFIG_LIVEPATCH case
 - Fixed some small module.c nits
For the series:
