The current kernel loader expects an extracted ELF kernel; this adds complexity to the build and test process for the guest kernel, since the normal output of a Linux kernel build is a bzImage-format kernel. bzImage also supports compressed kernels, which are smaller on disk and potentially quicker to load, depending on disk and CPU speed. Add support for loading of bzImage-format kernels, and use the 64-bit boot protocol as described in the official Linux/x86 boot protocol: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/x86/boot.txt The existing ELF loader is kept for compatibility with shipping kernel images; if a kernel image doesn't have the ELF signature, it is passed to the bzImage loader as a fallback.
