So the patch that was supposed to drastically reduce the size of modules 
by extracting the debugging info to a separate deduplicated file, 
actually increased it even more? Sounds pretty ironic.

Or did the deduplication finally make BTFs reasonably small to be 
included by default, as they were much larger before and thus were disabled?
