Ok, how about this.  If this looks ok, would you be willing to apply it?

Subject: [PATCH v2] scripts: add script for translating stack dump function
 offsets

addr2line doesn't work with KASLR addresses.  Add a basic addr2line
wrapper script which takes the 'func+offset/size' format as input.

v2:
- add size and function type checking
- use readelf for more deterministic output

+#
+# addr2line doesn't work with KASLR addresses.  This works similarly to
+# addr2line, but instead takes the 'func+0x123' format as input:
+#
+#   $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux meminfo_proc_show+0x5/0x568
+#   fs/proc/meminfo.c:27
+#
+# If the address is part of an inlined function, the full inline call chain is
+# printed:
+#
+#   $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux native_write_msr+0x6/0x27
+#   arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:121
+#   include/linux/jump_label.h:125
+#   arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:125
+#
+# The function size after the '/' in the input is optional, but recommended.
+# It's used to help disambiguate any duplicate symbol names, which can occur
+# rarely.  If the size is omitted for a duplicate symbol then it's possible for
+# multiple code sites to be printed:
+#
+#   $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux raw_ioctl+0x5
+#   drivers/char/raw.c:122
+#   net/ipv4/raw.c:876
