kpatch_verify_patchability can detect the change of .bss or .data or .init section, but it must be processed before verify num_changed. Otherwise, for example, if only .init section changed, it will fail with 'no changed functions were found', but not 'unsupported section change(s)'. With this patch, for .init section: .init section will not a bundled section, so if the section changed, not sync the function status, kpatch_verify_patchability will give 'changed section <secname> not selected for inclusion' and 'unsupported section change(s)' error. for .bss/.data section: kpatch_verify_patchability will ensure not including .data or .bss section, otherwise it will give 'data section <secname> selected for inclusion' and 'unsupported section change(s)' error.

kpatch_verify_patchability can detect the change of .bss or .data or
.init section, but it must be processed before verify num_changed.
Otherwise, for example, if only .init section changed, it will fail
with 'no changed functions were found', but not 'unsupported section
change(s)'.
With this patch,
for .init section: .init section will not a bundled section, so if
the section changed, not sync the function status, kpatch_verify_patchability
will give 'changed section not selected for inclusion' and
'unsupported section change(s)' error.
for .bss/.data section: kpatch_verify_patchability will ensure not
including .data or .bss section, otherwise it will give 'data section
selected for inclusion' and 'unsupported section change(s)'
error.
