[WHY] Currently we're copying the entire bios image into vbios. Loading time for FW with entire bios(54272 bytes) is 105138us. By copying only the sections of bios we're using(4436 bytes), loading time drops to 104326us which saves us 812us. [HOW] ROM header, master data table, and all data tables will be packed in contiguous manner. The offsets for the data tables are remapped to their newly packed location.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
