Subject: [PATCH 4/7] arm: compressed: discard ksymtab/kcrctab sections

[Download RAW message or body]
With UEFI support added to the decompressor, we may end up including
C code that is part of the kernel proper, but is rebuilt for the
decompressor. This may result in ksymtab/kcrctab metadata being
duplicated into the decompressor, so discard such regions explicitly.
