MIPS: Cleanup and Fixup of compressed kernel support
o Remove the .initrd section. The initrd section was already handled when vmlinux was linked. o Discard .MIPS.options, .options, .pdr, .reginfo, .comment and .note sections. If .MIPS.options is not removed, kernels compiled with gcc 3.4.6 will not boot. o Clean up the file format. o Remove several other unneeded sections. Tested with GCC 3.4.6 and 4.4.1 with and without initrd.
