[RFC PATCH v1.9 13/14] livepatch: add /proc/<pid>/patch_status

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Fri Mar 25 2016 - 15:36:25 EST


Expose the per-task klp_universe value so users can determine which
tasks are holding up completion of a patching operation.

Call it "patch_status" rather than "universe": it's at least more
descriptive for the average user.
