this patchset is good and all, but can we not also introduce cmd_zload to load zImages? Wolfgang, today's ARM hardware will really benefit from that, uImage holds us back a lot these days. Other option is to extend cmd_bootm() to load zImages.
Other architectures like x86 and sh seem to use zboot, perhaps we should stick to zboot for all architectures rather than introducing bootm -z or bootz? AFAIK the file formats are slightly different per architecture, but the U-Boot cmdline usage would be the same.
