Please check attached version with link misc_pgt.o.

BTW, here are difference between include misc_pgt.c and link misc_pgt.o:

include misc_pgt.c
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
13934290        304      50064    13984658     d56392
arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux

link misc_pgt.o
   text       data        bss        dec        hex    filename
13934336        304      50064    13984704     d563c0
arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux

Thanks
