OK. This isn't for root image, but to make the uncompressed kernel ~685k smaller. So maybe 200k smaller after compression.

basically it does EXTRA_FLAGS+=-fno-inline -Wno-inline -Os -Wno-strict-aliasing while setting the inline limit to 0 and adding some libkern functions that need it. Plus adding the canonical MUTEX/RWLOCK/SX_NOINLINE options.

P.S. Don't have this hardware, so no test boots.
