kbuild: drop $(size_append) from cmd_zstd
The appended file size is only used by the decompressors, which some architectures support. As the comment "zstd22 is used for kernel compression" says, cmd_zstd22 is used in arch/{mips,s390,x86}/boot/compressed/Makefile. On the other hand, there is no good reason to append the file size to cmd_zstd since it is used for other purposes. Actually cmd_zstd is only used in usr/Makefile, where the appended file size is rather harmful. The initramfs with its file size appended is considered as corrupted data, so commit 65e00e04e5ae ("initramfs: refactor the initramfs build rules") added 'override size_append := :' to make it no-op. As a conclusion, this $(size_append) should not exist here. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <n.schier@avm.de>
