This code is copy-paste from scripts/generate_builtin_ranges.awk
So, my comments in 2/4 can apply to this patch, too.


Instead of adding a separate script,
we could add a "verify mode" option.


 scripts/generate_builtin_ranges.awk --verify ...


But, I do not know how much cleaner it will become.

I am not good at reviewing AWK code, but this
is how you go.




If this script were written in Python,
it would be easy and readable to
split logically-related code chunks into functions,
as follows:


def parse_module_builtin():
    ...


def parse_vmlinux_map_lld():
    ...


def parse_vmlinux_map_bfd():
    ...


def parse_vmlinux_o_map():
    ...
