If you discount the docs/man pages of the RPMs, how much does kmod,
udev, systemd actually contribtue in bytes to your docker images?

Shrinking the the docker image is more then just size. We want to
eliminate packages that are not used (Within reason) to eliminate
problems like CVE's. If udev/systemd/kmod had a CVE we would need to
update all Container images.
