Yinghai Lu d97b07c54f initramfs: support initramfs that is bigger than 2GiB
Now with 64bit bzImage and kexec tools, we support ramdisk that size is
bigger than 2g, as we could put it above 4G.

Found compressed initramfs image could not be decompressed properly.  It
turns out that image length is int during decompress detection, and it
will become < 0 when length is more than 2G.  Furthermore, during
decompressing len as int is used for inbuf count, that has problem too.

Change len to long, that should be ok as on 32 bit platform long is
32bits.

Tested with following compressed initramfs image as root with kexec.
	gzip, bzip2, xz, lzma, lzop, lz4.
run time for populate_rootfs():
   size        name       Nehalem-EX  Westmere-EX  Ivybridge-EX
 9034400256 root_img     :   26s           24s          30s

Yinghai Lu 4d4b866aee initrd: fix lz4 decompress with initrd
During testing initrd (>2G) support, find decompress/lz4 does not work
with initrd at all.

decompress_* should support:
1. inbuf[]/outbuf[] for kernel preboot.
2. inbuf[]/flush() for initramfs
3. fill()/flush() for initrd.

in the unlz4 does not handle case 3, as input len is passed as 0, and it
failed in first try.

Fix that add one extra if (fill) checking, and get out if EOF from the
fill().

Jan Beulich 2a1d689c9b lib/decompress_unlz4.c: always set an error return code on failures
"ret", being set to -1 early on, gets cleared by the first invocation of
lz4_decompress()/lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize(), and hence subsequent
failures wouldn't be noticed by the caller without setting it back to -1
right after those calls.

Kyungsik Lee e76e1fdfa8 lib: add support for LZ4-compressed kernel
Add support for extracting LZ4-compressed kernel images, as well as
LZ4-compressed ramdisk images in the kernel boot process.
