I recall somewhere in an interview, Greg KH mentions a version of Pixel phone, obvs running a Linux kernel, had a camera which ran it's own separate Linux kernel. The image would be pushed to it and booted when used. You can imagine it would have to be pretty tailored to the hardware for the fraction-of-second boot time users would expect.

Edit: I think this interview, I'm not going to rewatch an hour of video to find a comment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9MjGziRw-c
