From: Rafał Miłecki <[email protected]> The biggest (and the only?) disadventage of this is obviously an increased image size.
For mips74k the size of vmlinux goes up from 4186684 B to 4701436 B. Most devices use LZMA compressed kernel so probably more important is vmlinux.lzma size which goes up from 1342945 B to the 1508498 B. Still this isn't something that should stop target kernel bump. There are various adventages of kernel 4.14. If kernel / image size is a serious concern for anyone, it's perfectly possible to use previous release which is pretty solid for the brcm47xx.
