Uninline copy*user and a few other things then. Fix the size of struct
page. Add a CONFIG_SMALL where users can pick to have very small hash tables
on older systems with little RAM. Add the two extra common slab sizes
people identified

This kind of stuff tends to save you hundreds of K yet nobody is doing that
before even worrying about some trivial 150 bytes.
