Bug Description
kpatch is a Linux dynamic kernel patching infrastructure which allows you to patch a running kernel without rebooting or restarting any processes. It enables sysadmins to apply critical security patches to the kernel immediately, without having to wait for long-running tasks to complete, for users to log off, or for scheduled reboot windows. It gives more control over uptime without sacrificing security or stability.

Livepatch modules created using kpatch tools also requires Kernel changes. The required kernel bits are merged into powerpc/next branch, attaching the kernel patches.
