I'm ok with waiting, but otherwise Palmer could take patch 1 and 2 and you
could take patch 3. The worst that can happen is that a bisect lands on your
branch that will only package the uncompressed Image in the tarballs even if
Image.gz or Image.bz2 exist. CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT=y and CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL=y_kernels
will also be fine with only patch 3 applied.
