The size of an omap2plus_defconfig kernel has increased by 760K - a remarkable increase that fortunately does not appear to be matched by runtime memory consumption.
Well let's take that back. I seem to have glazed over the 1 to 4MB (!) runtime memory usage increases in boot memory consumption. That is also an extraordinary increase.
Probably mostly caused by 673ce00c5d6c (ARM: omap2plus_defconfig: Add support for distros with systemd). But I bet actually at least ipv6 can be a loadable module here, I'll take a look.
