Merge tag 'livepatching-for-5.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/livepatching/livepatching

Pull livepatching updates from Petr Mladek:

 - New API to track system state changes done be livepatch callbacks. It
   helps to maintain compatibility between livepatches.

 - Update Kconfig help text. ORC is another reliable unwinder.

 - Disable generic selftest timeout. Livepatch selftests have their own
   per-operation fine-grained timeouts.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
