Thanks for building the kernel with the patch. Can you share the kernel sources, so that can I build the livepatch modules based on the sources. Standard .config, does not build the samples/livepatch to do the basic testing.
cat /boot/config-4.15.0-20-generic |grep -i livepatch
CONFIG_HAVE_LIVEPATCH=y
CONFIG_LIVEPATCH=y

I would also try to build livepatch modules other than the sample modules in the kernel sources to verify save_stack_trace functionality.
