Nor I particularly, but I do with gcc 4.9.1

Curious.  What gcc version?

with that 4.9.1 gcc version and a defconfig (x86-64) I get:

$ size net/ipv[46]/udp.o*
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  21328     672       9   22009    55f9 net/ipv4/udp.o.new
  21312     672       9   21993    55e9 net/ipv4/udp.o.old
  14463     588       2   15053    3acd net/ipv6/udp.o.new
  14527     588       2   15117    3b0d net/ipv6/udp.o.old

and defconfig x86-32:

$ size net/ipv[46]/udp.o*
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  19626     324       5   19955    4df3 net/ipv4/udp.o.new
  19706     324       5   20035    4e43 net/ipv4/udp.o.old
  14189     300       2   14491    389b net/ipv6/udp.o.new
  14125     300       2   14427    385b net/ipv6/udp.o.old
