It might make sense to add a note about sample modules in
lib/livepatch/

It would be great to make a clue how to run the test. Something like:

	  To run tests call:

	  tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test-callbacks.sh
	  tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test-livepatch.sh
	  tools/selftests/livepatch/test-shadow-vars.sh

This is inspired by config TEST_KMOD description.

Otherwise, it looks great to me. Thanks a lot for getting this
together.
