That way, the default config with (advertises? #t) and without a cache
will offer zstd-compressed substitutes, which should lead to much higher
throughput than gzip.

When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev
and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the
underlying install support from being umounted. See:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html.
To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container,
and run the installation from within that container.

* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID
argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that

This commit adds support for GZIP compression for linux-libre kernel
modules. The initrd modules are kept uncompressed as the initrd is already
compressed as a whole.
The linux-libre kernel also supports XZ compression, but as Guix does not have
any available bindings for now, and the compression time is far more
significant, GZIP seems to be a better option.

This reverts commit 4c0cc7bed3.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/41116>.
Reported by Alex Sassmannshausen <alex@komputilo.eu>.
The problem is that reconfiguring on a system running Shepherd < 0.8.0
would lead to an error, due to #:file-creation-mask not being supported.
The error is rather harmless: it prevents service upgrade but the system
itself is upgraded.
We can reinstate that commit eventually, once #:file-creation-mask has
become widespread.
This is a followup to d7113bb655 and
e3358a831e.
* gnu/services/base.scm (syslog-service-type): Change 'start' method to set
