I think this is great stuff. (Of course, having research something like this
previously, I'm a bit biased.)
It's very nice to have the Bloat-o-meter output for these kernel size shrinking
patches.
The patch itself looks very straightforward, and I don't see any problems
in a visual inspection.
You can add a Reviewed-by: Tim Bird <[email protected]> to this patch.
I'd like to be able to point people to this on the mailing list. In the future
can you make sure to CC: <[email protected]>, so there's a reference
on lkml.org I can point people to?
Thanks for this great work!
