[PATCH 1/4] KEYS: Insert incompressible bytes to reserve space in bzImage

[Mehmet Kayaalp]

Include a random filled binary in vmlinux at the space reserved with
CONFIG_SYSTEM_EXTRA_CERTIFICATE. This results in an uncompressed reserved
area inside the bzImage as well, so that it can be replaced with an actual
certificate later (after the bzImage is distributed).
