Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 3/4] arm: Add support for LZ4-compressed kernel

This patch integrates the LZ4 decompression code to the arm pre-boot code.
And it depends on two patchs below

lib: Add support for LZ4-compressed kernel
decompressor: Add LZ4 decompressor module

Signed-off-by: Kyungsik Lee <kyungsik.lee@....com>

v2:
- Apply CFLAGS, -Os to decompress.o to improve decompress
  performance during boot-up process
