On a related note, the patch creation process (of which klp-convert would be part of) needs to be documented.
If I remember correctly, the proper safe usage of klp-convert requires a kernel built with -flive-patching, plus some scripting and/or manual processes.
If nobody knows how to safely use it then there wouldn't be much value in merging it.
