I suspect we could just drop the addresses entirely if we have a
symbolic version. It's not like the hex addresses are all that
interesting, and in commit messages I actually end up editing them out
just because they are worthless noise.

So we could just do "schedule+0x45/0x368" without the actual hex
address in brackets..
