Thanks for the quick feedback, I'll be looking forward for your comments once you have the change to dig deeper :). I'll apply all typo-fixes, add klpclean to the PHONY targets and change the quiet_cmd invocation as suggested in v2.

Tbh, I never had tried it before, so I just emulated the process and it was simple and successful. All it required in addition to what is regular, was the introduction of the "LIVEPATCH_($bastarget).o := y" into the Makefile. All else was implicitly handled by Kbuild.
