Commit Message

The livepatch kselftests rely on comparing expected and actual output
from such commands as sysctl.  A recent commit in procps-ng v4.0.0 [1]
changed sysctl's output to emit key pathnames like:

  sysctl: setting key "/proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled": Device or resource busy

versus previous dotted output:

  sysctl: setting key "kernel.ftrace_enabled": Device or resource busy

The modification in output was later reverted [2], but since the change
has been tagged in procps-ng v4.0.0, update the livepatch kselftest to
handle either case.
