I've noticed that mips doesn't have a compressed kernel option,
so I had added support (ripped shamelessly from arch/i386) for it
to save space on our flash chips.

It works fine for my db1550 and also our product boards.
The patch is pretty messy but if there was interest in it I could clean
it up. Is there any historical reason for it not being included?
