[PATCH 3/3] livepatch: Use static buffer for debugging messages under rq lock
From: Petr Mladek
Date: Fri May 31 2019 - 03:45:54 EST
The err_buf array uses 128 bytes of stack space. Move it off the stack
by making it static. It's safe to use a shared buffer because
klp_try_switch_task() is called under klp_mutex.
