[Bug runtime/11602] New: compress unwind data

[fche at redhat dot com]

16MB of maximum module size can be exceeded if one attempts to upload
unwind/symbol data for huge userspace libraries like libxul.so.  It
turns out that .eh_frame and .debug_frame are highly compressible
(gzip shows 80%).  We could put the compressed form into the .ko
and decompress on demand into the relatively more voluminous kernel
heap.
