Steps to Reproduce

1) /buildarea1/wrlinux6async/wrlinux-x/wrlinux/configure --enable-board=bcm-xlp --enable-kernel=cgl --enable-rootfs=glibc-cgl --with-template=feature/kexec --enable-parallel-pkgbuilds=24 --enable-jobs=24

2) deploy images.
3) boot board.
4) copy striped vmlinux to board.

Follow steps in description.
