A real patch would have been a step in the right direction.

BTW the Linux kernel achieves that feature by annotating
init-only-functions (and their data) explicitly so that these can end up
in separate segments (which are freed eventually).

Adding an additional shared lib costs elsewhere and the added code to
load it at run-time explicitly too.
The Linux kernel's way seems more usefull: Mark init-only functions as
such, add linker magic so that that ends up in a separate segment (and
thus separate pages which can be evicted on their own) ans it should
work with any additional dlopen() ....
