scsi: reduce CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y impact by 8k
On 64 bit, struct error_info has 6 bytes of padding, which amounts to over 4k of wasted space in the additional[] array. We could easily get rid of that by instead using separate arrays for the codes and the pointers. However, we can do even better than that and save an additional 6 bytes per entry: In the table, just store the sizeof() the corresponding string literal. The cumulative sum of these is then the appropriate offset into additional_text, which is built from the concatenation (with '\0's inbetween) of the strings. $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/vmlinux vmlinux add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 24/-8488 (-8464) function old new delta scsi_extd_sense_format 136 160 +24 additional 11312 2824 -8488 The Kconfig help text used to say that CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y costs around 75 KB, but that was a little exaggerated. The actual number was closer to 44K, and 36K with this patch.
