This series of patches first changes zlib_inflate/ to be more easily picked at by moving some non-core functions into their own file. Next, this switches zlib_inflate_trees_fixed(...) from using a static table, to generating that table. This can save us up to 4kB from the vmlinux (ppc32) and when used in the boot/ code, up to 8kB. Finally, we switch arch/ppc/boot/ from using it's own version of zlib to using lib/zlib_inflate. All of this should also lead the way for lib/inflate.c going away. -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/
