Some versions of GNU ld (observed with binutils 2.36 on Arch Linux) introduce a .note.gnu.property section marked as loadable at a high address and with non-empty contents. This adds approximately 128MB of garbage to the BIOS .usb disk images. Fix by using a custom linker script for the prefix-only binaries such as the USB disk partition table and MBR, in order to allow unwanted sections to be explicitly discarded.
