mt7621: mikrotik: use vmlinuz (zBoot ELF)
- minimal built initramfs: 11MB vmlinux ELF -> 4.5MB vmlinuz - ~5 seconds for kernel decompression, which was equivalent to the additional time to load the uncompressed ELF from SPI NOR. - Removes requirement for lzma-loader, which may have been causing some image builds to fail to boot on Mikrotik mt7621. Fixes: FS#3354 Suggested-by: Thibaut VARĂˆNE <hacks@slashdirt.org> Signed-off-by: John Thomson <git@johnthomson.fastmail.com.au>
