I think you didn't misunderstand it. But it might be beneficial to have a few additional explanatory words in the documentation nevertheless :) Thanks, -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe live-patching" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
