AFAICT this is the only call of tune_bucketsize().
It is defined just above TUNE_BUCKETSIZE as:
static u8
tune_bucketsize(u8 curr, u32 multi)
{
	u32 n;

	if (multi < curr)
		return curr;

	n = curr + AHASH_INIT_SIZE;
	/* Currently, at listing one hash bucket must fit into a message.
	 * Therefore we have a hard limit here.
	 */
	return n > curr && n <= AHASH_MAX_TUNED ? n : curr;
}

If I'm reading it correctly this is just:
	return curr >= multi || curr >= 64 ? curr : curr + 2;
(the 'n > curr' test is unconditionally true).
The extra check is limiting it to 12 (AHASH_MAX_TUNED) not 64.

Quite why the change makes a significant difference to the validity
of the kvalloc() is another matter.
Changing a multiplier from 64 to 12 seems unlikely to be that
significant - if it is you wouldn't want to be multiplying by 12.

I've not looked what 'multi' is, but I'm sort of surprised it isn't
used as the new bucketsize.

Also it doesn't really look right to have lots of static functions
in a .h file?
