It's not nothing, just very small increasement:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
7636121	1391824	9355264	18383209	1188169	vmlinux

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
7636113	1391824	9355264	18383201	1188161	vmlinux

I do not want to insist on this minor problem, if you want please keep it.

Thanks
Dave
