right. I'm rather reluctant to merge anything which could have been done from
userspace via the maps2 interfaces.
See, this is why I think the kernel needs a ./userspace-tools/ directory. If
we had that, you might have implemented this as a little proglet which parses
the maps2 files. But we don't have that, so you ended up doing it in-kernel.
