The original state won't get restored when the test fails.

A better solution would be to integrate this into setup_config()
and cleanup() in /tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/functions.sh

Also it would be great to avoid hard-coding /sys/kernel/debug.
See KLP_SYSFS_DIR="/sys/kernel/livepatch" in
/tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/functions.sh

I would replace it with:

KERNEL_SYSFS_DIR="/sys/kernel"
KLP_SYSFS_DIR="$KERNEL_SYSFS_DIR/livepatch"
DEBUG_SYSFS_DIR="$KERNEL_SYSFS_DIR/debug"
KPROBES_SYSFS_DIR="$DEBUG_SYSFS_DIR/kprobes"

It would actually look better with switched ordering:

SYSFS_KERNEL_DIR="/sys/kernel"
SYSFS_KLP_DIR="$SYSFS_KERNEL_DIR/livepatch"
SYSFS_DEBUG_DIR="$SYSFS_KERNEL_DIR/debug"
SYSFS_KPROBES_DIR="$SYSFS_DEBUG_DIR/kprobes"

But this would require renaming KLP_SYSFS_DIR everywhere in
a separate (prerequisite) patch. It would be nice but
I do not want to force you to do it ;-)

Nit: Please, put it in alphabetical order. It is not a big deal.
     The ordering helps searching. The list already is almost sorted.
     And the patch needs to be updated anyway.

Nit: The module adds a kprobe. I would invert the logic:

MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Livepatch test: kprobe livepatched function");
