No, please do not make the backtraces a complete mess for something that serves absolutely no need.
It serves a need. Please look at the patches to understand that I'm adding the buildid to automatically find the associated debug information on distros.
Would a "verbose" flag be acceptable solution? Something like write 1 to /sys/kernel/debug/verbose_stack to get the extra info. I think I see a need for it.
Or a kernel config option and a commandline parameter? That would be OK for me as I said on v1 of this series. I'll add that in for the next patch series given all the distaste for some more hex characters next to the module name.
