Change the parisc vmlinuz boot code to include and process the real compressed vmlinux.gz ELF file instead of a compressed memory dump. This brings parisc in sync on how it's done on x86_64. The benefit of this change is that, e.g. for debugging purposes, one can then extract the vmlinux file out of the vmlinuz which was booted which wasn't possible before. This can be archieved with the existing scripts/extract-vmlinux script, which just needs a small tweak to prefer to extract a compressed file before trying the existing given binary. The downside of this approach is that due to the extra round of decompression/ELF processing we need more physical memory installed to be able to boot a kernel.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
