[PATCH] ARM: 2816/1: Shark: boot kernel images bigger than 1 MB 

Patch from Alexander Schulz

Up to now, shark kernels were limited to one megabyte compressed
size. As the kernels get bigger, this becomes more and more
uncomfortable. So I added a loop to copy 3 MB instead of one
and added some comments.
