I don't think that will be enough.
User space should not be able to pass a random kernel address
and convince the kernel that it matches a particular btf_id.
As discussed in the other thread matching based on name is
breaking apart.
pahole does all the safety check to make sure name/addr/btf_id
are consistent.
We shouldn't be adding workarounds like this because
pahole/btf/kernel build is not smart enough.
