What kernel setting is/can be responsible for this? N.B. I'm compiling the test11 to test it on my hardware, so ATM I'm not too worried about size if debugging is made easier. But this is _quite_ a drastic size increase compared to 2.4.22, where most driver files were 10-40k in size. .config attached. Compiled cleanly, with a couple warnings. I'll now test it on my laptop.
