could we _please_ use basic tools as vmlinux size comparison and objcompare when unifying, to make sure it's a 100% identity conversion?

case in point, the patch claims:

No functional change is made.

but vmlinux before/after size comparison shows:

    text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 8802894 1224910 3526656 13554460         ced31c vmlinux.before
 8803042 1224910 3526656 13554608         ced3b0 vmlinux.after


Well, "no functional changes" is not quite the same thing as "no object code changes".
