Print the function address associated with the restore_r2() error to
make it easier to debug the problem.

Also clarify the wording a bit.

Before:

  module_64: patch_foo: Expect noop after relocate, got 3c820000

After:

  module_64: patch_foo: Expected nop after call, got 7c630034 at
netdev_has_upper_dev+0x54/0xb0 [patch_foo]

Note: This patch is optional, it improves the debugging message.

Title:
  [18.04] kpatch - Add livepatch hook support for ppc64le

Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:

Bug description:
  kpatch is a Linux dynamic kernel patching infrastructure which allows
  you to patch a running kernel without rebooting or restarting any
  processes. It enables sysadmins to apply critical security patches to
  the kernel immediately, without having to wait for long-running tasks
  to complete, for users to log off, or for scheduled reboot windows. It
  gives more control over uptime without sacrificing security or
  stability.

  kpatch is upstream hosted at 
  https://github.com/dynup/kpatch
  https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/releases

  Add support for livepatch infrastructure on ppc64le
