This patch implements the stack protector code in MIPS compressed boot
phase based on the same code added to arm in commit

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

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

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

 o Remove the .initrd section.  The initrd section was already handled
   when vmlinux was linked.
 o Discard .MIPS.options, .options, .pdr, .reginfo, .comment and .note
   sections.  If .MIPS.options is not removed, kernels compiled with gcc
   3.4.6 will not boot.
 o Clean up the file format.
 o Remove several other unneeded sections.

Tested with GCC 3.4.6 and 4.4.1 with and without initrd.

This patch helps to generate smaller kernel images for linux-MIPS,

Here is the effect when using lzma:

$ ls -sh vmlinux
7.1M vmlinux
$ ls -sh vmlinuz
1.5M vmlinuz

Have tested the 32bit kernel on Qemu/Malta and 64bit kernel on FuLoong
Mini PC. both of them work well. and also, tested by Alexander Clouter
on an AR7 based Linksys WAG54Gv2, and by Manuel Lauss on an Alchemy
board.

This -v2 version incorporate the feedback from Ralf, and add the
following changes:

1. add .ecoff, .bin, .erec format support
2. only enable it and the debug source code for the machines we tested
3. a dozen of fixups and cleanups

and if you want to enable it for your board, please try to select
SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT for it, and if the board have an 16550 compatible
uart, you can select SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT_UART16550 directly. and then
sending the relative patches to Ralf.
