====================
cxgb4: reduce memory footprint for collecting firmware dump
Firmware dump can be large (upto 2 GB). In low memory conditions,
ethtool fails to allocate such large memory. So, use zlib deflate
to compress collected firmware dump.
Patch 1 updates collection logic to use compression.
Patch 2 adds zlib deflate to compress collected firmware dump.
