This patch series extends booti to support compressed images as well. Following compressed images are supported for now.
lzma, lzo, bzip2, gz.
Other compression methods can easily be supported if required. The above compression methods are common ones that Linux kernel (ARM64/RISC-V) and U-Boot supports.
Changes from v4->v5
- Moved back to explicit kernel_comp_size enviornemnt variable

The series is not in master yet. I am not sure about the merge window cycle for U-Boot. I am assuming nothing else is required for this series to go in. Please let me know otherwise.
The patchwork shows it is delegated to Tom. I guess it will end up in master in sometime before the next release. https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?submitter=74477
It won't be in v2020.04, but it should be in v2020.07, I'll likely pull it to -next soon. Thanks again!
