Sure, it isn't urgent at all. I created this as a resolution for the crash
reported by Ramana (
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/lldb-dev/2017-February/012001.html) but I
don't fully understand the use case he/she is working on when wanting to
open a ".o" file yet (but I still wanted to get rid of an LLDB crash).

Yea if this isn't urgent, can we wait for my other changes to go in?

Llvm does support mapping writable, but not through the same interface. So
it should still work

Adding Zachary as he was about to remove this code.

The timing of this patch is a bit unfortunate, as it would complicate the
removal of the code in question. If I am not mistaken, llvm's version
currently does not support copy-on-write mappings, which is what we are
trying to do here. The c-o-w could certainly be added there, and we will
probably need to do it in the future, but I am not sure whether this is the
right time for it. I don't want to impede Zachary's cleanup effort due to a
"feature" that noone has serious commitment of supporting.
