[Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>]

hi,

It contains 2 changes that improove search performance for livepatch
and bpf.

v3 changes:
  - fixed off by 1 issue, simplified condition, added acks [Song]
  - added module attach as subtest [Andrii]

v2 changes:
  - reworked the bpf change and meassured the performance
  - adding new selftest to benchmark kprobe multi module attachment
