You don't turn them off - you just don't run them. What I'm suggesting is not a separate system that runs a stripped-down Linux kernel, but rather a device that looks like another node in a NUMA system.
There might be a point in completely excluding subsystems that will never be used on that NIC anyway, but that's already an optimization.
