But if you index everything using dev:inode:offset it doesn't matter if the
mapping changes; you're invariant to map placement.

And the thing is; we already compute most of that anyway in order to find the
code in DSOs, except there we use filename instead of dev:inode. However if
there were means to open files using dev:inode that might actually be more
reliable than using the filename.
