v0.4.0

This release has many fixes and improvements since 0.3.4. The '0.3' was
bumped to '0.4' because of commit 0bb5c10 ("kmod: restructure
kpatch sysfs tree"), which broke the ABI between the kpatch core module
and the kpatch script, as it changed the sysfs layout.

Other notable changes since 0.3.4:

  • The tools underlying kpatch-build have been made more modular, in
    preparation for making create-diff-object more generally useful to
    other use cases (kernel livepatch, Xen live patching, user space
    patching).
  • Support for all new upstream kernels up to 4.10.
  • KASLR support.
  • Many other bug fixes and improvements.
