AArch64 kernel image decompression

[Josh Cartwright]

Hey Will-

Scanning the Documentation/arm64/booting.txt document, I came across
this, listing an optional step a bootloader might take:

"The AArch64 kernel does not currently provide a decompressor and
therefore requires decompression (gzip, etc.) to be performed by the
boot loader if a compressed Image target (e.g. Image.gz) is used."

Do you envision that, if a decompressor is desired, it will always be
the responsibility of a bootloader to implement it?

In other words, would you accept patches adding support for building
zImages (and others) for AArch64?

Thanks,
   Josh
