Greg: added to the CC as one of the LDD3 authors. perhaps it's interesting

Hm, I think that section dates back to the LDD1 versions, I sure didn't
write it :)
Just checked. It's not in LDD1. The example got introduced in LDD2:
http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD2/ch13.lwn#t2
where it's not actually an identity mapping. Someone probably just updated
the output for LDD3, and probably went "ah, damnit!" on seeing the identity
and then deciding it would do anyway :-)
But I'll try to remember it if a 4th version is ever considered, but as
of right now, no one is talking of it.
Could very well be that the book market is the thing most negatively
effected by the 2.6 developement model. No possibilities for "all new,
covers 2.8!" blurp on cover...
