Define macros KLP_MODULE_RELOC and KLP_SYMPOS in
include/linux/livepatch.h to improve user-friendliness of the
livepatch annotation process.

[jmoreira:
* split up: move KLP_MODULE_RELOC from previous patch to here
* add KLP_SYMPOS
* move macros from include/uapi/livepatch.h to include/linux/livepatch.h
]
