Add MicroLZMA support in order to maximize compression ratios for specific scenarios. For example, it's useful for low-end embedded boards and as a secondary algorithm in a file for specific access patterns. MicroLZMA is a new container format for raw LZMA1, which was created by Lasse Collin aiming to minimize old LZMA headers and get rid of unnecessary EOPM (end of payload marker) as well as to enable fixed-sized output compression, especially for 4KiB pclusters. Similar to LZ4, inplace I/O approach is used to minimize runtime memory footprint when dealing with I/O. Overlapped decompression is handled with 1) bounced buffer for data under processing or 2) extra short-lived pages from the on-stack pagepool which will be shared in the same read request (128KiB for example).

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.
