How to remove unused configs from kernel?

I ran Steven Rostedt's streamline.pl script to remove unloaded modules from the
current .config. It removed over 300 unused modules from having to be
compiled, saving much space and time:

But much more can be done. Is there an easy way to detect unused kernel code
from the running kernel and de-config it? I'm sure there's a lot of bloat in
my kernel that never gets executed.
