Michael, if the plan is still the original one, i.e. you push it to your 
branch, and I merge it to livepatching (and resolve any dependencies on 
the relocations code during the merge) and push it to Linus from 
livepatching.git, then there shouldn't be anything do to on your side.

Alternatively, you can rebase on top of livepatching.git#for-next, and 
I'll take it directly.

Thanks,
