[PATCH v5 09/15] livepatch: remove unnecessary object loaded check

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Mon Feb 13 2017 - 20:44:27 EST


klp_patch_object()'s callers already ensure that the object is loaded,
so its call to klp_is_object_loaded() is unnecessary.

This will also make it possible to move the patching code into a
separate file.
