[PATCH 0/2] livepatch: Remove custom kobject state handling and duplicated code

From: Petr Mladek
Date: Fri May 03 2019 - 09:27:07 EST


Tobin's patch[1] uncovered that the livepatching code handles kobjects
a too complicated way.

The first patch removes the unnecessary custom kobject state handling.

The second patch is an optional code deduplication. I did something
similar already when introducing the atomic replace. But it was
not considered worth it. There are more duplicated things now...
