None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

In the worst case this adds less then 128 bytes of code
but on the other hand this makes code organization more clear.

Add support for the LZ4 compression scheme in the ZBOOT decompression
stub, in order to support it we need to:

- select the "lz4" compression tool to compress the vmlinux.bin
  payload
- memcpy() is also required for decompress_unlz4.c so we share the
  implementation between GZIP, XZ and now LZ4

<title>MIPS: ZBOOT: Define program header for text loadable segment</title>

<content type='text'>
There is currently no corresponding ELF program header for the "text"
loadable segment which is confusing for some bootloader out there such
as CFE because it expects to find a program header matching the segment
it is trying to load. The Linux kernel ELF binary "vmlinux" has a
similar program header for the text segment so we just mimic this here
too.

Add support for the XZ compression scheme in the ZBOOT decompression
stub, in order to support it we need to:

- select the "xzkern" compression tool to compress the vmlinux.bin
  payload
- link with ashldi3.o for xz_dec_run() to work
- memcpy() is also required for decompress_unxz.c so we share the
  implementation between GZIP and XZ

<title>MIPS: Add uImage build target</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4defe4559e86e26545ab2f542656a4b966dcde53</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a uImage build target for MIPS, which builds uImage.gz (a U-Boot
image of vmlinux.bin.gz), and then symlinks it to uImage. This allows
for the use of other compression algorithms in future, and is how a few
other architectures do it.

It's enabled conditionally on load-y &gt;= 0xffffffff80000000 which
hopefully allows 64bit kernels to also work as long as the load and
entry address can be represented by the 32bit addresses in the U-Boot
image format.

<title>MIPS: Refactor load/entry address calculations</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3185557d1acf8cc0c937b1343de83e2483bde28b</id>
<content type='text'>
The vmlinux load address and entry address is calculated in multiple
places:
 - arch/mips/Makefile defines load-y from CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START (or
   defined by the platform) and passes it to
   arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile.
 - arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile calculates kernel entry using nm.
 - arch/mips/lasat/image/Makefile calculates both load and entry address
   using nm.

Lets combine these in the main Makefile and then pass them as Make
parameters to each of the three boot image Makefiles (in boot/,
boot/compressed, lasat/image/). The boot/ Makefile doesn't currently use
them, but will soon need to for U-Boot image targets.

The existing load-y definition is used in preference to calculating the
load address using nm.
