The Image.* targets existed for other compressors already. Bootloader
support is needed for decompression.
This is for CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT=n. With CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT=y, XZ was already
available.

Add a script which produces a Flat Image Tree (FIT), a single file
containing the built kernel and associated devicetree files.
Compression defaults to gzip which gives a good balance of size and
performance.
The files compress from about 86MB to 24MB using this approach.
The FIT can be used by bootloaders which support it, such as U-Boot
and Linuxboot. It permits automatic selection of the correct
devicetree, matching the compatible string of the running board with
the closest compatible string in the FIT. There is no need for
filenames or other workarounds.
Add a 'make image.fit' build target for arm64, as well.
The FIT can be examined using 'dumpimage -l'.
This uses the 'dtbs-list' file but processes only .dtb files, ignoring
the overlay .dtbo files.
This features requires pylibfdt (use 'pip install libfdt'). It also
requires compression utilities for the algorithm being used. Supported
compression options are the same as the Image.xxx files. Use
FIT_COMPRESSION to select an algorithm other than gzip.
While FIT supports a ramdisk / initrd, no attempt is made to support
this here, since it must be built separately from the Linux build.

You do not need to use $(shell ...) in recipe lines, as they are already
executed in a shell. An alternative solution is $$(...), which is an
escaped sequence of the shell's command substituion, $(...).
For this case, there is a reason to avoid $(shell ...).
Kbuild detects command changes by using the if_changed macro, which
compares the previous command recorded in .*.cmd with the current
command from Makefile. If they differ, Kbuild re-runs the build rule.
To diff the commands, Make must expand $(shell ...) first. It means that
hexdump is executed every time, even when nothing needs rebuilding. If
Kbuild determines that vmlinux.bin needs rebuilding, hexdump will be
executed again to evaluate the 'cmd' macro, one more time to really
build vmlinux.bin, and finally yet again to record the expanded command
into .*.cmd.
Replace $(shell ...) with $$(...) to avoid multiple, unnecessay shell
evaluations. Since Make is agnostic about the shell code, $(...), the
if_changed macro compares the string "$(hexdump -s16 -n4 ...)" verbatim,
so hexdump is run only for building vmlinux.bin.
For the same reason, $(shell ...) in EFI_ZBOOT_OBJCOPY_FLAGS should be
eliminated.
While I was here, I replaced '&&' with ';' because a command for
if_changed is executed with 'set -e'.

The EFI zboot code is not built as part of the kernel proper, like the
ordinary EFI stub, but still needs access to symbols that are defined
only internally in the kernel, and are left unexposed deliberately to
avoid creating ABI inadvertently that we're stuck with later.
So capture the kernel code size of the kernel image, and inject it as an
ELF symbol into the object that contains the compressed payload, where
it will be accessible to zboot code that needs it.

Add some plumbing to the zboot EFI header generation to set the newly
introduced DllCharacteristicsEx flag associated with forward edge CFI
enforcement instructions (BTI on arm64, IBT on x86)
x86 does not currently uses the zboot infrastructure, so let's wire it
up only for arm64.

Currently, the (z)install targets in arch/arm64/Makefile descend into
arch/arm64/boot/Makefile to invoke the shell script, but there is no
good reason to do so.
arch/arm64/Makefile can run the shell script directly.

Since v4.3-rc1 commit 0723c05fb75e44 ("arm64: enable more compressed
Image formats"), it is possible to build Image.{bz2,lz4,lzma,lzo}
AArch64 images. However, the commit missed adding support for removing
those images on 'make ARCH=arm64 (dist)clean'.
Fix this by adding them to the target list.
Make sure to match the order of the recipes in the makefile.

We currently define OBJCOPYFLAGS in the top-level arm64 Makefile, and
thus these flags will be passed to all uses of objcopy, kernel-wide, for
which they are not explicitly overridden. The flags we set are intended
for converting vmlinux (and ELF) into Image (a raw binary), and thus the
flags chosen are problematic for some other uses which do not expect a
raw binary result, e.g. the upcoming lkdtm rodata test:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2016/06/08/2
This patch localises the objcopy flags such that they are only used for
the vmlinux -> Image conversion.

The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
from the .dts files. This patch changes arm64 to use the generic dtb
rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.
This requires moving parts of arch/arm64/boot/Makefile into newly created
arch/arm64/boot/dts/Makefile, and updating arch/arm64/Makefile to call the
new Makefile.
