I do not think making this the default is good idea, because the lz4demo utility that you need to actually compress the kernel (used in patch 2) is not installed nor available by default on most systems, while gzip is. Considering that such a concern was already raised in your v2 patchset, I am surprised to see this. -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
