Stack usage doesn't grow much I think. struct pci_dev becomes larger, but I doubt you can find those on the stack. Some local variables move from u32 to u64. But doesn't run this code in 32bit anyway?
I was referring to the changes to dprintf, which does run in 16bit mode. There is a script tools/checkstack.py that can calculate the 16bit stack usages.
