  1. Patch for LZ4 decompression bug 

    Sorry if i've misformatted this patch, i'm not terribly comfortable with github :(

The issue (and patch by Krzysztof Kolasa emerged here https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/3/453)

64bit kernels using the latest upstream source and compressed with LZ4 (mine included) are unable to decompress the image and simply halt saying 
"Decoding failed
>  -- System halted"
The patch mentioned successfully solved this issue, but there was a problem with its formatting. I'm hoping a suitable patch can be made (incase i've horribly mucked this up) before the 4.1 kernel reaches stability, even better if it could make it in before this weekend's next -rc bump.
I cannot comment on the suitability or style of the patch, i am simply trying to push it forward, since it's quite important for fellow LZ4 users.

Thank you in advance!
