I'm less than happy with this. I often dump out structure memory for, say 64 bytes or so, starting at some particular structure. Then I look at the source for the structure to see where various things are. This will make that impossible. I will instead have to specify each item individually, which means paying a lot more attention to the debugger and less to debugging.

You can still do an eu-readelf --debug=info on the bit of the kernel containing the structure definition you're interested in and look at the debuginfo to see where the structure members are. (Yes, this is a drag.)
