Linus,
please pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching.git for-linus
to receive livepatching updates for 4.5 merge window:
- 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 [1]
- symbol disambiguation support from Chris J Arges. That series is also
Reviewed-by: Miroslav Benes <mbenes@xxxxxxx>
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
