While running stress test with livepatch module loaded, kernel bug was
triggered.

When an interrupt occurs during the livepatch_handler execution, it's
possible for the livepatch_stack and/or thread_info to be corrupted.
eg:
Task A Interrupt Handler
========= =================
livepatch_handler:
mr r0, r1
ld r1, TI_livepatch_sp(r12)
hardware_interrupt_common:
do_IRQ+0x8:
mflr r0 <- saved stack pointer is overwritten
bl _mcount
...
std r27,-40(r1) <- overwrite of thread_info()
lis r2, STACK_END_MAGIC@h
ori r2, r2, STACK_END_MAGIC@l
ld r12, -8(r1)
Fix the corruption by using r11 register for livepatch stack
manipulation, instead of shuffling task stack and livepatch stack into
r1 register. Using r11 register also avoids disabling/enabling irq's
while setting up the livepatch stack.
