[POC 20/23] module/livepatch: Relocate local variables in the module loaded when the livepatch is being loaded

[Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>]

The special SHF_RELA_LIVEPATCH section is still needed to find static
(non-exported) symbols. But it can be done together with the other
relocations when the livepatch module is being loaded.

There is no longer needed to copy the info section. The related
code in the module loaded will get removed in separate patch.
