Remove the dependency on the decompression wrappers used by the legacy
decompressor, which do some odd things like providing a barebones
malloc() implementation. Instead, implement GZIP deflate and ZSTD
decompression in terms of the underlying libraries.

With this patch in linux-next, my loongarch boot tests with qemu
no longer boot. Log message is:
qemu log:
EFI stub: Decompressing Linux Kernel...
EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable
EFI stub: Loaded initrd from LINUX_EFI_INITRD_MEDIA_GUID device path
EFI stub: Exiting boot services
... and then there is nothing until I abort the emulation.
Reverting this patch results in a build failure, so I awas not able to
test it. Bisect results are atatched for reference.
Thanks for the report - I'll drop the patch for now, and try again next cycle.
Mind sharing your config/firmware/command line details? I'm failing to
reproduce the issue.
qemu-system-loongarch64 -M virt -cpu \
la464 -kernel arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinuz.efi -smp 2 \
-no-reboot -m 4G -initrd rootfs.cpio \
-bios QEMU_EFI-loongarch64.fd \
--append "panic=-1 kunit.stats_enabled=2 kunit.filter=speed>slow rdinit=/sbin/init console=ttyS0,115200 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0x1fe001e0,115200n8" \
-nographic -serial stdio -monitor none
qemu version is 9.1. The EFI image is at
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/blob/master/rootfs/firmware/QEMU_EFI-loongarch64.fd
and the initrd is at
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/blob/master/rootfs/loongarch/rootfs.cpio.gz
Configuration is defconfig with various debug options enabled.
I'll be happy to make a test directory available with all information needed
if that helps. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Guenter
