10  *      Table compression uses all the unused char codes on the symbols and
11  *  maps these to the most used substrings (tokens). For instance, it might
12  *  map char code 0xF7 to represent "write_" and then in every symbol where
13  *  "write_" appears it can be replaced by 0xF7, saving 5 bytes.
14  *      The used codes themselves are also placed in the table so that the
15  *  decompresion can work without "special cases".
16  *      Applied to kernel symbols, this usually produces a compression ratio
17  *  of about 50%.
