cr:/speicher/src/u4ac9 $ ls -l mm/shmem.o*
-rw-r--r--    1 cr       users      154652 Mai 16 19:27 mm/shmem.o-tmpfs
-rw-r--r--    1 cr       users      180764 Mai 16 19:24 mm/shmem.o+tmpfs
cr:/speicher/src/u4ac9 $ ls -l fs/ramfs/ramfs.o
-rw-r--r--    1 cr       users      141452 Mai 16 19:27 fs/ramfs/ramfs.o

So CONFIG_TMPFS adds 26k and ramfs 140k.
