Maybe you can disable the rpc stuff when you know that you will only
use ssh. Just a guess.

Secure only if dropbear get's integrated into busybox. And I don't
know if that's a good idea as you can compile dropbear and it's
utilities as a single call binary like busybox and then it's stripped
size is approx. 120kB an the CRIS platform compared to 320kB when
compiled as multiple binaries.
