Today, livepatch takes precedence over direct_call. Instead, save the
state and make direct_call before handling livepatch.
If we call into the BPF trampoline first and if we have
BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG set, does this result in the BPF trampoline
calling the new copy of the live-patched function or the old one?
Naveen, calls the new copy of the live-patched function..
