kernel for Asus TF201 [3].

[1] N7 kernel: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=hwe/ubuntu-nexus7.git

This is needed if this kernel is booted using kexec-hardboot,
because atags need to be in direct-mapped region, usually
the first 16kB of RAM.

Subject: [PATCH] UBUNTU: Enable caching and buffering of whole RAM in the decompressor

OriginalAuthor: Mike Kasick <[email protected]>

kernel for Asus TF201 [3].

This is to speed-up booting if this kernel is booted using
kexec-hardboot. Without this patch, decompressor is very slow
to decompress, because it is located far above the kernel destination.
