The text and data address is saved in the meta data so that it can be used
to know the delta of the text and data addresses of the last boot compared
to the text and data addresses of the current boot. The delta is used to
convert function pointer entries in the ring buffer to something that can
be used by kallsyms (note this only works for built-in functions).
But the saved addresses get reset on boot up. If the buffer is not used
and there's another reboot, then the saved text and data addresses will be
of the last boot and not that of the boot that created the content in the
ring buffer.
To get an idea of the issue:
# trace-cmd start -B boot_mapped -p function
# reboot
# trace-cmd show -B boot_mapped | tail

By not updating the saved text and data addresses in the meta data at
every boot up and only updating them when the buffer is reset, it
allows multiple boots to see the same data.
