I compile tested it.  Then I got bored trying to hunt down all the
Kconfig things I needed to turn on to runtime test it ;)

btw, I suggest using HAVE_LIVE_PATCHING instead of
ARCH_HAVE_LIVE_PATCHING.  because this:

akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " HAVE_" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l
67
akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " ARCH_HAVE_" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l  
3
akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " ARCH_HAS_" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l   
7
akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " HAVE_ARCH" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l         
8
akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " ARCH_USE" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l     
4
akpm3:/usr/src/25> grep " ARCH_WANT" arch/x86/Kconfig | wc -l   
6

makes me cry.
