So what you measured was the effect of Arjan's patch plus -Os, combined, correct? if yes you should measure the two effects in isolation, like the vmlinux numbers i posted. Every patch applied and every change to .config options must be measured separately, to get valid results. This doesnt invalidate your raw vmlinux measurements - you simply need to add a "Arjan's patch applied but no -Os turned on" number - but it does invalidate your conclusion quoted above.
