++ bool "Keep kallsyms uncompressed"

++ help
++ Normally kallsyms contains compressed symbols (using a token table),
++ reducing the uncompressed kernel image size. Keeping the symbol table
++ uncompressed significantly improves the size of this part in compressed
++ kernel images.
++
++ Say N unless you need compressed kernel images to be small.
