Dear Simon,

Compressed images should have their compression property set to "none" if U-Boot should leave them compressed.
This is especially the case for compressed ramdisks that should be uncompressed by the kernel only.
Is this not self-explaining as is? When you use "none", U-boot wil do nothing to the data - it passes it on unchanged as binay blob.
I donrt see the need for this additional explanation of what seems obvious to me.
This has been explicitly requested in this mail: https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2018-July/336435.html
It might seem obvious to you, but given the examples had both "none" and "gzip" for ramdisk, it seems it has not been obvious for everybody.
