Size comparisons with all SoC options on vs only one? Yes, size comparisions with all SoCs (for given family) turned on vs only one turned on (done on kernel without this patch applied). Also size comparisons for ARCH_EXYNOS4 and ARCH_EXYNOS5 both turned on vs only ARCH_EXYNOS4 or ARCH_EXYNOS5 turned on (with this patch applied).
