What do you mean by providing livepatches for -stable trees, please? It is true that the livepatch is built from source code. But it might need to be customized for different binaries. For example, inlined functions cannot be livepatched directly. The callers need to be included into the livepatch instead. The affected functions would depend on compiler, compiler flags, configure options, etc. I think that more practical might be to discuss what needs to be done to automatize the livepatch creation.
