r - Make legend invisible but keep figure dimensions and margins the same

I have made a plot with a legend.

enter image description here

Using an image editing program I made the legend invisible (but otherwise the figure has the same dimensions)

enter image description here

Is it possible to do this in ggplot2? I want to have a 2x2 panel of diagrams in a document but only one legend.

See Question&Answers more detail:os

Using this as an example,

library(ggplot2)

p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = disp, y = hp, color = factor(cyl))) +
    geom_point() +
    geom_line()

enter image description here

The following seems to work:

p + theme(
        legend.text = element_text(color = "white"),
        legend.title = element_text(color = "white"),
        legend.key = element_rect(fill = "white")
    ) + 
    scale_color_discrete(
        guide = guide_legend(override.aes = list(color = "white"))
    )

enter image description here

Notice that the dimension of the gray plot area did not change.
