    Just tried x86 gcc 5.1.1, same result:

$ size drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o{~,}
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   23245	   1188	      0	  24433	   5f71	drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o~
   23259	   1188	      0	  24447	   5f7f	drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o

i.e. +14 bytes of code. :-O

MBR, Sergei
