I did one more test to see which syscalls actually cause bloat in
when CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is set in order to drop them
all. I build the above riscv tinyconfig with
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION and truncated the syscall
table before and after each syscall to see the size difference.

A lot of syscalls are already conditional, so those show up as
0, 4 or 8 bytes (not sure why they are not always 0). Others
could probably be made to fit within some category that can
be made optional (e.g. xattr or adjtimex). Having a Kconfig
option for those would also let users remove even more code that
is not useful without the syscalls but might be called from
somewhere else in the kernel.
