add support for loading lzma compressed kernels
This patch allows one to load a lzma compressed kernel using kexec -l.
As I wanted the lzma code to be very similar to the existing
zlib slurp_decompress I took lzread and associated routines
from the cpio lzma support. Tested on my x86 laptop using the
following commands:
lzma e bzImage bzImage.lzma
kexec -l bzImage.lzma
Having lzma support is particularly useful on some embedded
systems on which we have the kernel already lzma compressed
and available on a mtd partition.
