Martin Nybo Andersen fbf5892df2 kbuild: Use CRC32 and a 1MiB dictionary for XZ compressed modules
Kmod is now (since kmod commit 09c9f8c5df04 ("libkmod: Use kernel
decompression when available")) using the kernel decompressor, when
loading compressed modules.

However, the kernel XZ decompressor is XZ Embedded, which doesn't
handle CRC64 and dictionaries larger than 1MiB.

Use CRC32 and 1MiB dictionary when XZ compressing and installing
kernel modules.

README

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.
