parisc: Fix unaligned-access crash in bootloader Kernel v5.14 has various changes to optimize unaligned memory accesses, e.g. commit 0652035a5794 ("asm-generic: unaligned: remove byteshift helpers"). Those changes triggered an unalignment-exception and thus crashed the bootloader on parisc because the unaligned "output_len" variable now suddenly was read word-wise while it was read byte-wise in the past. Fix this issue by declaring the external output_len variable as char which then forces the compiler to generate byte-accesses.

parisc: PA-Linux requires at least 32 MB RAM Even a 32-bit kernel requires at least 27 MB to decompress itself, so halt the system with a message if the system has less memory than 32 MB. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

parisc: Include compressed vmlinux file in vmlinuz boot kernel Change the parisc vmlinuz boot code to include and process the real compressed vmlinux.gz ELF file instead of a compressed memory dump. This brings parisc in sync on how it's done on x86_64. The benefit of this change is that, e.g. for debugging purposes, one can then extract the vmlinux file out of the vmlinuz which was booted which wasn't possible before. This can be archieved with the existing scripts/extract-vmlinux script, which just needs a small tweak to prefer to extract a compressed file before trying the existing given binary. The downside of this approach is that due to the extra round of decompression/ELF processing we need more physical memory installed to be able to boot a kernel.

parisc: Fix indenting in puts() Static analysis tools complain that we intended to have curly braces around this indent block. In this case this assumption is wrong, so fix the indenting.

parisc: Unbreak bootloader due to gcc-7 optimizations gcc-7 optimizes the byte-wise accesses of get_unaligned_le32() into word-wise accesses if the 32-bit integer output_len is declared as external. This panics then the bootloader since we don't have the unaligned access fault trap handler installed during boot time. Avoid this optimization by declaring output_len as byte-aligned and thus unbreak the bootloader code. Additionally, compile the boot code optimized for size.
