Yes. drm.ko is ~1 MiB. Plus helper DRM modules. That's maybe 1.5 to 2 MiB within the kernel binary. We're working on reducing this. Keep in mind that you won't need extra userspace in your initramfs. All you need is the kernel code.
That's not much, you people had me scared with your talk of "bigger footprint" :-p
Local numbers: kernel 10M in vmlinuz form (83 MB uncompressed) initrd 14M in cpio zstd-9 form (46 MB uncompressed) \_ kernel/device drivers make up 16 of 46 MB Adding another 2M of (uncompressed) code for DRI. Can be much.
