I was checking this patch but it seems not required.

If we change the 'sdcard' to 'sdcard.bz2' in IMAGE_FSTYPES it just works.

Using:

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2 ext3 sdcard.gz"

I got:

otavio at centrium ~/src/ossystems/yocto/build % ls
tmp/deploy/images/imx6qsabresd -l
total 26544

...

So this patch is not required.
