smatch says:
lib/zlib_inflate/inftrees.c:240 zlib_inflate_table() error:
buffer overflow 'count' 16 <= 16
The loop calculating the value for 'min', which is later used to access
count[], can indeed result in an index larger than ARRAY_SIZE(count)
if the array is filled with 0.
Fixes: 4f3865fb57a04 ("zlib_inflate: Upgrade library code to a recent version")
