Max,

Does this patch mean that some 2K to 3K bytes of kernel text
will be added to non-SMP systems, due to kernel/cpu.o moving
from CONFIG_SMP only to always being included?

If so, then I'd think that the folks who obsess with small
non-SMP kernels might not like this change.


non-SMP ? Do people still build those :) ?
Just kidding.

Hmm, why would it be any different ?
I've just build UP kernel with and w/o the patch

size vmlinux

before
text data bss dec hex filename
3313797 307060 310352 3931209 3bfc49 vmlinux

after
text data bss dec hex filename
3313797 307060 310352 3931209 3bfc49 vmlinux

I think we're good here.
