Shawn Guo 07b1602161 ARM: decompress: remove unused ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG
ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG is only used in lib/inflate.c which is not
included in arch/arm/boot/compressed/decompress.c now.  That said,
ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG is not used at all.  Let's remove it.

Rob Herring ef1c2096fc ARM: 7492/1: add strstr declaration for decompressors
With the generic unaligned.h, more kernel headers get pulled in including
dynamic_debug.h which needs strstr. As it is not really used, we only need
a declaration here.

Nicolas Pitre ccc1c7c6c2 ARM: zImage: don't ignore error returned from decompress()
If decompress() returns an error without calling error(), we must
not attempt to boot the resulting kernel.

Albin Tonnerre 6e8699f7d6 ARM: 6026/1: ARM: Add support for LZMA-compressed kernel images
This patch allows using a kernel image compressed with LZMA on ARM.
Extracting the image is fairly slow, but it might be useful on machines
with a very limited amount of storage, as the size benefit is quite
significant (about 25% smaller with LZMA compared to GZIP)

Russell King b89ebadc34 ARM: Add final piece to fix XIP decompressor in read-only memory
This defines STATIC_RW_DATA, which prevents the read/write malloc
management data being declared with a static attribute.

Russell King 5de813b6cd ARM: Eliminate decompressor -Dstatic= PIC hack
We used to build decompressors with -Dstatic= to avoid any local data
being generated.  The problem is that local data generates GOTOFF
relocations, which means we can't relocate the data relative to the
text segment.

Global data, on the other hand, goes through the GOT, and can be
relocated anywhere.

Unfortunately, with the new decompressors, this presents a problem
since they declare static data within functions, and this leads to
stack overflow.

Fix this by separating out the decompressor code into a separate file,
and removing 'static' from BSS data in misc.c.

Also, discard the .data section - this means that should we end up
with read/write initialized data, the decompressor will fail to link
and the problem will be obvious.
