Super small nit, but I shuffled the annotated-sample code around so it
better matched the original sample.  This minimized the diff when I
compared the two versions to see what was added for sympos annotation:

v5.0 deprecates klp_register_patch(), klp_unregister_patch(), and
klp_disable_patch(), so adjust the sample accordingly:
