[PATCH 4/4] x86: boot: avoid memory copy if kernel is uncompressed

[Albert Huang]

From: "huangjie.albert" <huangjie.albert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

1、if kernel is uncompressed. we do not need to relocate
kernel image for decompression

2、if kaslr is disabled, we do not need to do a memory copy
before prase_elf.

Two memory copies can be skipped with this patch. this can
save aboat 20ms during booting.
