Over patch 4; yes. Patches 1-3 generate different kernels, esp patch 2 has a large drop in size, 5 too is invariant. Patch 6 however increases code size again, but then it actually changes the generated code so that's somewhat expected. But with patches 1-3 its all clear what changes and why; and having the big scary conversion patch 4 invariant is good. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
