Yes: customize your kernel configuration and remove all the kernel
modules that you don't need.
For the Raspberry Pi, we're using the "bcmrpi" defconfig that comes
from the Linux kernel tree hosted on Github at
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git. If this configuration doesn't
suit you, you simply have to customize it.
See
https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_configuration_of_other_components
for some details.
Best regards,
Thomas
