Subject: [PATCH v2] kbuild: Enable armthumb BCJ filter for Thumb-2 kernel
xz_wrap.sh use $SRCARCH to detect the BCJ filter. However, assigning
arm BCJ filter to Thumb-2 kernel is not optimal. In my case, about 5%
decrease of image size is observed with armthumb BCJ filter:
Test results:
hardware: QEMU emulator version 3.1.0
config: vexpress_defconfig with THUMB2_KERNEL & KERNEL_XZ on
arm BCJ: 4029808
armthumb BCJ: 3827280
Choose armthumb BCJ filter for Thumb-2 kernel to make smaller images.
