From: Lasse Collin <lasse.col...@tukaani.org>
This integrates the XZ decompression code to the x86
pre-boot code.
mkpiggy.c is updated to reserve about 32 KiB more buffer safety
margin for kernel decompression. It is done unconditionally for
all decompressors to keep the code simpler.
The XZ decompressor needs around 30 KiB of heap, so the heap size
is increased to 32 KiB on both x86-32 and x86-64.
Documentation/x86/boot.txt is updated to list the XZ magic number.
With the x86 BCJ filter in XZ, XZ-compressed x86 kernel tends to be
a few percent smaller than the equivalent LZMA-compressed kernel.

Even though the buffer safety margin has been increased,
the comments in misc.c about the safety margin calculation
were not touched. This is because the misc.c comments describe
the calculation of the margin for the .gz format.
