Sigh, I am really sorry about this. We made a mistake in handling
inter-tree dependencies between livepatching and modules-next,
unfortunately :-( Merging the modules-next pull request next should
resolve the module_enable_ro() not defined for
!ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX build issue. The failure was hidden in
linux-next since both trees were always merged together. Again, it
doesn't excuse us from build testing our separate trees more
rigorously.
