	The livepatch selftest functions.sh library uses "$*" and an intermediate variable to extract and then pass arguments from function to function call. The effect of this combination is that the argument list is flattened into a single argument. Sometimes this is benign, but in cases like __load_mod(), the modprobe invocation will interpret all the module parameters as a single parameter. Drop the intermediate variable and use the "$@" special parameter as described in the bash manual.
