Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching
Pull livepatching updates from Jiri Kosina: - handle 'infinitely'-long sleeping tasks, from Miroslav Benes - remove 'immediate' feature, as it turns out it doesn't provide the originally expected semantics, and brings more issues than value * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching: livepatch: add locking to force and signal functions livepatch: Remove immediate feature livepatch: force transition to finish livepatch: send a fake signal to all blocking tasks
