There's also crap that can be removed in my patch. Like I started a
cache_chain algorithm. For example by adding just:

#if 0
static void test_slob(slob_t *s)
{

[...]

}

void print_slobs(void)
{

[...]

}
#endif

I get:
rt:
size mm/slob.o
text data bss dec hex filename
1889 112 233 2234 8ba mm/slob.o

rt smp:
size mm/slob.o
text data bss dec hex filename
2135 120 233 2488 9b8 mm/slob.o

So, I probably need to add stuff for CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.
