From: Jeremy Linton <jeremy.linton at arm.com>
The kernel EFI stub ZBOOT feature creates a PE that
contains a compressed linux kernel image. The stub
when run in a valid UEFI environment then decompresses
the resulting image and executes it.
Support these image formats with kexec as well to avoid
having to keep an alternate kernel image around.
This patch adds a the _probe() and usage() routines needed
for kexec to understand this format.

+ * ARM64 PE compressed Image (vmlinuz, ZBOOT) support.
+ *
+ * Several distros use 'make zinstall' rule inside
+ * 'arch/arm64/boot/Makefile' to install the arm64
+ * ZBOOT compressed file inside the boot destination
+ * directory (for e.g. /boot).
+ *
+ * Currently we cannot use kexec_file_load() to load vmlinuz
+ * PE images that self decompress.
+ *
+ * To support ZBOOT, we should:
+ * a). Copy the compressed contents of vmlinuz to a temporary file.
+ * b). Decompress (gunzip-decompress) the contents inside the
+ * temporary file.
+ * c). Validate the resulting image and write it back to the
+ * temporary file.
+ * d). Pass the 'fd' of the temporary file to the kernel space.
+ *
+ * Note this, module doesn't provide a _load() function instead
+ * relying on image_arm64_load() to load the resulting decompressed
+ * image.
+ *
+ * So basically the kernel space still gets a decompressed
+ * kernel image to load via kexec-tools.
