I have set the -mshort-calls flag which is documented to replace the 4 byte long CALL instruction with the 2 byte long RCALL instruction when possible to save flash space and and cycles...
Unfortunately the compiler is still using full CALL instructions even for a call that is only 2 bytes away...

It appears that this option changed at some point and not all the documentation was updated. Atmel Studio also still uses the obsolete flag.
The new option is called -mrelax on the compiler command line or --relax on the linker command line...
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.9.2/gcc/AVR-Options.html
After adding that flag, the above code compiled to...
...
3584: 00 d0 rcall .+0 ; 0x3586
3586: f8 94 cli
...
If you happened to be using Atmel Studio, I put the flag here...
In my case, this change resulted in significant flash savings. If you are here because you also need to save flash space and/or cycles, I'd also recommend looking into enabling Link Time Optimization which also offers great savings at no cost.
