We don't really care about the size of the decompressed image - what matters is how much space needs to be allocated for the image to execute, and this includes space for BSS that is not part of the loadable image and so it is not accounted for in the decompressed size. So let's add some zero padding to the end of the image: this compresses well, and it ensures that BSS is accounted for, and as a bonus, it will be zeroed before launching the image. Since all architectures that implement support for EFI zboot carry this value in the header in the same location, we can just grab it from the binary that is being compressed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
