AFAIU Madhavan's patch series linked in the above [1] is currently awaiting
review by Mark Rutland. It seems that not only this patch series but also the
implementation of arch_stack_walk_reliable() at the below link is required
to enable livepatch.

I think ` source "kernel/livepatch/Kconfig"` should be placed between
`menu "Kernel Features"` and `endmenu`.
