Your patch is fine as it is.

But I just thought I'd mention that if anyone wants to we should
really change this to use a different tfm, e.g., always use the
generic algorithm to perform the decompression.  This way if there
were multiple implementations we can at least test them against
the generic one.

Otherwise you could end up with a buggy implementation that works
against itself but still generates incorrect output.

Cheers,
