XFS binary code size

I'm curious about the footprint of the XFS binary code, specifically for
32 bit systems, but knowing the 64 bit case would be educational as well
for comparison. I don't use kernel modules or I'd already have a rough
answer. My last build was 2.6.38.6 but I'm sure the size hasn't changed
much in more recent kernels. My XFS build options were:
$ grep -i xfs .config
CONFIG_XFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_RT is not set
My resulting kernel image is:
$ la /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38.6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.6M May 17 23:55 vmlinuz-2.6.38.6
How much of that 1.6MB is XFS? Also, what is the size of the hot path
code that we want to stay in L1 during heavy IO?
