But it is currently used only for the filename.

The code is sometimes also looking up bp_location address -> symbol and using
its symtab (update_static_tracepoint) and I did not want to dig so deep in
this patch.  Use for the source file name works fine, some possible
generalization could be done elsewhere (but I do not see it much needed).
