Yafang Shao adb68ed26a livepatch: Add "replace" sysfs attribute
There are situations when it might make sense to combine livepatches
with and without the atomic replace on the same system. For example,
the livepatch without the atomic replace might provide a hotfix
or extra tuning.

Managing livepatches on such systems might be challenging. And the
information which of the installed livepatches do not use the atomic
replace would be useful.

Add new sysfs interface 'replace'. It works as follows:

   $ cat /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch-non_replace/replace
   0

   $ cat /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch-replace/replace
   1

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
