Subject: [PATCH 36/96] kernel: add a config option for keeping the kallsyms
table uncompressed, saving ~9kb kernel size after lzma on ar71xx
[john@phrozen.org: added to my upstream queue 30.12.2016]

+ Normally kallsyms contains compressed symbols (using a token table),

+ uncompressed significantly improves the size of this part in compressed
+ kernel images.

+ Say N unless you need compressed kernel images to be small.
