I had not seen this one originally, commenting on it now:

1536 is a /lot/ when we're dealing with 32-bit platforms.
My understanding of the parisc overhead was that this
was just based on a few bytes per function call, not
something that makes everything bigger. We have a
few functions that get close to the normal 1024
byte limit, everything else should be no more than
a few hundred bytes on any architecture.

Could it be that this only happens when KASAN or some
other feature is enabled?

If this happens for normal parisc builds without any
special compilation options, that would indicate that the
compiler is very broken.
