Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot
process and this is provided with a set of four functions:
malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release.
The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement
free. This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding
allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena.
This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying
all the malloc/free implementations.
The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses:
- free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which
allocations should be made
- free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which
allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on
the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed
The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog()
function call. This function will be called several times during the
decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is
still running. If an architecture provides such a call, then it must
define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls
arch_decomp_wdog().
Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the
kernel and improved by me.

- Use the normal cross gcc instead of using an elf specific cris toolchain.
This removes the dependency of this second toolchain.
- Use the normal cross objcopy instead of overriding it to use elf-toolchain.
This allows compiling using "CROSS_COMPILE=$CRIS_GCC/cris-axis-linux-gnu-"
instead of just "CROSS_COMPILE=$CRIS_GCC/cris-axis-linux-gnu/bin/"
- Remove redundant rules for compiling, the implicit rules are sufficient.
- Convert the arch/cris/arch-v10/boot/compressed/head.S to format
accepted by the cris-axis-linux-gnu-gcc (registers must be prefixed
with '$', remove explicit underscore on exported symbols)
- Remove a number of unused (and duplicated) prototypes from
arch/cris/arch-v10/boot/compressed/misc.c.
- Correct memcpy and memset return values (actually return them!)

- Add ifdef for ETRAX_AXISFLASHMAP to avoid compiling file unless it is set.
- Use assembler macros for setting up clocks.
- Don't copy image, just jump to it (only works for NOR flash)
- Shorten include paths to machine specific headers.
- Remove fill_inbuf, not defined here.
- Return __dest as value from memcpy.
- Enable serial port hardware transmitter and receiver in serial_setup.
- Correct baudrate divisor calculation, changed from 4800 to 115200.
- Add support for Artpec-3 specific serial port setup.
- Initialize pinmux for the correct serial port.
- Fixes for NAND and NOR flash booting.
- Use assembler macros for common tasks (clocks, general io etc)
- Use (EtraxFS or Artpec-3) machine specific include for dram and hardware init.
- Remove old specific targets, use more generic ones instead.
- Use if_changed to avoid creating new images when no change.
- Use EXTRA_CFLAGS instead of CFLAGS.
- Remove old specific targets, use more generic ones instead.
- Use if_changed to avoid creating new images when no change.
- Use KBUILD_CFLAGS instead of CFLAGS.
New CRIS sub architecture named v32.
