It's... debug_info..

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED is not set
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4=y

"atleast" the zImage isn't bloated, but the modules are 4x/5x bigger...

a few users wanted to use systemtap:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SystemTap

that needs debug_info..
