(Sorry; this is going to have _wide_ output)
OK, so what I did is I build 4 kernels (O=defconfig-build{,1,2,3}) with
resp that many patches of this series applied.
When I look at just the vmlinux size output:
$ size defconfig-build*/vmlinux
text data bss dec hex filename
19540631 5040164 1871944 26452739 193a303 defconfig-build/vmlinux
19540635 5040164 1871944 26452743 193a307 defconfig-build1/vmlinux
19540685 5040164 1871944 26452793 193a339 defconfig-build2/vmlinux
19540685 5040164 1871944 26452793 193a339 defconfig-build3/vmlinux
Things appear to get slightly larger; however when I look in more
detail using my (newly written compare script, find attached), I get
things like:
$ ./compare.sh defconfig-build defconfig-build1
arch/x86/mm/fault.o 12850 12818 -32
kernel/power/process.o 3586 3706 +120

total 4768226 4768268 +42
When we look at just tick-sched.o:
$ ./compare.sh defconfig-build defconfig-build1 kernel/time/tick-sched.o
can_stop_idle_tick.isra.14 146 139 -7
we see a totally different number ?!

And we see that GCC created a .cold. subfunction because the first patch
removed the volatile from __this_cpu_read() and could thus move it.
Similarly the second patch; which removes volatile from
smp_processor_id():

It is because of cold subfunction creation; with a reduction in side of
the regular path.
The third build included patches 3 and 4 (because they don't much
overlap); and give some meagre savings:
$ ./compare.sh defconfig-build2 defconfig-build3 arch/x86/kernel/irq.o
do_IRQ 195 187 -8
smp_x86_platform_ipi 234 222 -12
smp_kvm_posted_intr_ipi 74 66 -8
smp_kvm_posted_intr_wakeup_ipi 86 78 -8
smp_kvm_posted_intr_nested_ipi 74 66 -8
$ ./compare.sh defconfig-build2 defconfig-build3 arch/x86/mm/tlb.o
flush_tlb_func_common.constprop.13 728 719 -9
switch_mm_irqs_off 1528 1524 -4
Now, I realize you particularly hate the tlb patch; and I'll see if I
can get these same savings with a few less __ added.
But in general, I think these patches are worth it. esp. since I've
already done them :-)
