Why is this not implemented for Thumb2 too?
Also, as Russell points out as well, this may end up being enabled for
all multiarch kernels, so it makes sense to explore whether we can
enable this unconditionally. Do you have any numbers wrt the impact on
text size? I would assume it is negligible, but numbers help.
Being able to decompress the image to any 2MiB aligned base address is
also quite useful for EFI boot, and it may also help to get rid of the
TEXT_OFFSET hacks we have for some platforms in the future.

Does it affect performance in other ways beyond code size/Icache density?
