Again, sorry if this was already discussed...
But for what? This moves the policy into the kernel and afaics buys nothing.
Can't it simply print the number?
If an application reads its own /proc/pid/maps, surely it knows how it should
interpret the numeric values.
If another process reads this file, and if it assumes that this number is a
pointer into that task's memory, it can do sys_process_vm_readv() ?
