Hello Jiri,

while I do appreciate your work on the s390 architecture backend for
livepatching:  this should go upstream only via the s390 tree or with
an Ack from Martin or me.

That being said, what is the reason why module relocations are not
supported?
As far as I can tell right now there is only one simple in-kernel
test case available (which is fine). However is the tool chain to
generate additional livepatch modules, available somewhere?
If so, where?

Thanks,
Heiko
