Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] mips: boot compressed: add support for vlinuz ELF DTB

I think it would be safer to make these changes by adding a different boot/compressed target: vmlinuz.elf?
So that this would not break kernel build cases where both a normal RAW_APPENDED_DTB zImage is wanted, and additionally an ELF boot vmlinuz.elf.
