Linus,
please pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching.git for-linus
to receive 4.2 merge window updates for livepatching subsystem.
==============================
- symbol lookup locking fix, from Miroslav Benes
- error handling improvements in case of failure of the module coming
notifier, from Minfei Huang
- we were too pessimistic when kASLR has been enabled on x86 and were
dropping address hints on the floor unnecessarily in such case. Fix
from Jiri Kosina
- a few other small fixes and cleanups
==============================
Thanks!
