This seems to be tripping up on an awful hack I had for silencing
modpost warnings. Apparently it doesn't work with your config.
Try the below. You can ignore the modpost warnings for now:
WARNING: modpost: "__stop_klp_objects"
[/home/jpoimboe/git/linux/klp-tmp/out/livepatch.ko] undefined!
WARNING: modpost: "__start_klp_objects"
[/home/jpoimboe/git/linux/klp-tmp/out/livepatch.ko] undefined!
