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.

* tag 'livepatching-for-5.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/livepatching/livepatching:
  x86/stacktrace: update kconfig help text for reliable unwinders
  livepatch: Selftests of the API for tracking system state changes
  livepatch: Documentation of the new API for tracking system state changes
  livepatch: Allow to distinguish different version of system state changes
  livepatch: Basic API to track system state changes
  livepatch: Keep replaced patches until post_patch callback is called
  selftests/livepatch: Disable the timeout
