Now that the EFI stub decompresses the kernel and hands over to the decompressed image directly, there is no longer a need to provide a decompression buffer as part of the .BSS allocation of the PE/COFF image. It also means the PE/COFF image can be loaded anywhere in memory, and setting the preferred image base is unnecessary. So drop the handling of this from the header and from the build tool.

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.
