Tiny (<4MB) initramfs linux kernel for imx8mp

Is it possible to have a initramfs based linux kernel whose size is <4 MB. 
So far every I have not been able to build a stripped down linux kernel for imx8mp is no less than 16MB and RFS for initramfs for less than 32MB. 

Is it even possible to build a tiny linux kernel including the initramfs for less than 4MB ? (3MB preferrably)

Hello,

Yes it is possible but we don't have anything like this because our BSP is made for our EVK and our EVK have a lot of drivers, if you remove all driver support you got it.

Regards
