From 5a09e6ce90e1bf26f0915e7e31329402766ffead Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2015 16:24:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] lib/decompress: set the compressor name to NULL on error Without this we end up using the previous name of the compressor in the loop in unpack_rootfs. For example we get errors like "compression method gzip not configured" even when we have CONFIG_DECOMPRESS_GZIP enabled. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V Cc: "H.
