Subject: [PATCH 0/1] lz4: fix system halt at boot on x86_64
Date: Sun,  3 May 2015 22:58:58 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430711939-9229-1-git-send-email-cjorden@gmail.com> (raw)

I just upgraded one of my systems from 4.0.0 to 4.0.1, and
discovered that it would no longer boot.  I tried recompiling
my kernel, to see if I had somehow corrupted it, but I got the
same results.  After searching google for a bit, I discovered
the discussion here:

Re: [PATCHv2] lz4: fix system halted at boot kernel x86_64 compressed lz4
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/3/453

I tested booting 4.0.1 with gzip compression, and it booted
fine.  I tested after applying this patch, and it also booted
fine.

It appears that this patch was never properly submitted to Greg,
so this is my pass at trying to have it properly formatted for
him.  This applies cleanly to 4.0.1.  I also tried to clean
up the wording a bit for the patch.

Please CC me on any response, as I am not yet subscribed to
this list.
