The following changes have been made between LKRG 0.1 and 0.2:
*) Add support for being loaded at early boot stage (e.g. from initramfs)
*) [CI] Add a new sysctl to control whether LKRG performs code integrity checks on random events (or only at regular intervals)
*) Reduce performance impact, e.g. in our specific test case:
-> Average cost of running a fully enabled LKRG => 2.5%
-> Average cost of running LKRG without the code integrity checks on random events (disabled with the new sysctl) => 0.7%
*) [CI] Fix a potential deadlock bug caused by get_online_cpus() function, which might sleep if CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
*) [CI] Fix dynamic NOPs injected by *_JUMP_LABEL for MWESTMERE
*) [CI] Remove false positives caused by *_JUMP_LABEL in corner case scenarios
*) [ED] Remove false positives when kernel executes usermode helper binaries
