[PATCH v2 1/2] initramfs: allow again choice of the embedded compression algorithm

From: klondike
Date: Tue Sep 27 2016 - 15:30:53 EST


Select builtin initram compression algorithm on KConfig instead of Makefile

This patch moves the current builtin initram compression algorithm selection
from the Makefile into the INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION variable. This makes
deciding
algorithm precedence easier and would allow for overrides if new algorithms
want to be tested.
