Hi Thomas.
Size delta kernel 4.2.1 x86_64_defconfig:
System is 5879 kB vs 5704 kB
Not much.

Keep in mind that even if we introduce the ipv6 option back this will be 
an issue anyway with glibc and musl-based systems since the kernel might 
lack ipv6 as well, sounds more like a bug than anything else.

Regards.
