Yes, it looks suspicious to say the least. How come the original content
is not needed anymore? Maybe the first section should be 0x1000 rather
than 0x169c?
I am not an expert on the load linkers myself so I cannot really answer
this question. Please note that ppc had something similar. See
ad55eac74f20 ("elf: enforce MAP_FIXED on overlaying elf segments").
Maybe we need to sprinkle more of those at other places?
