[PATCH 2/3 v9] livepatch: add sympos as disambiguator field to klp_reloc

2015-12-01 Thread Chris J Arges
In cases of duplicate symbols, sympos will be used to disambiguate instead of val. By default sympos will be 0, and patching will only succeed if the symbol is unique. Specifying a positive value will ensure that occurrence of the symbol in kallsyms for the patched object will be used for patching
