Don't know.
But then linemap itself should provide the ability to lookup existing entries rather than you adding another table ontop of it ... Note that you mess up the include stack when you re-use linemap entries across files (we at least care to setup the source TU information so you get 'included from foo.c' correctly - if you re-use linemaps you get that screwed up and ultimately end up with bogus inline stacks for example).
