Updated with some small changes, I'll merge once the CI is complete. |
Dracut errors were not being correctly detected. Add zstd, which is needed for compression.
This allows signing to happen on many cores in parallel.
This matches the eos6 kernel build which does not compress modules. They will still be compressed within the initramfs (which is compressed with zstd as a single blob) and within the ostree (where each object is gzipped individually).

Main thing in this PR is disabling kernel debug symbols, which brings the size of
payg-image.efidown from 392MB to 98.2MB. This is below the 100MB limit imposed by the sb-signer (just).About re-enabling kernel debug symbols, see tracking issues #176 and #178.
