Not sure if anybody is looking into this. Just tried a compile of generic and allmod. The differences are not that significant with the exception of per_cpu__kmem_cache_cpu at 0x28a0. A couple other low-hanging fruit here are per_cpu__shadow_flush_counts and per_cpu__mmu_gathers each of which takes approx 16k.
