fs/buffer.c:2259:       struct buffer_head *bh, *head, *arr[MAX_BUF_PER_PAGE];

Now,
include/linux/buffer_head.h:44:#define MAX_BUF_PER_PAGE (PAGE_SIZE / 512)

so 'arr' in the above is PAGE_SIZE/512 pointers.  From the attached .config,
CONFIG_32BIT=y
and
# CONFIG_PPC_4K_PAGES is not set
# CONFIG_PPC_16K_PAGES is not set
# CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES is not set
CONFIG_PPC_256K_PAGES=y
CONFIG_PPC_PAGE_SHIFT=18

IOW, we have 256K/512 pointers, 4 bytes each, which amounts to 2K.  Just in
that array.

The rest of affected functions have similar local arrays...
