Subject[PATCH] deflate stack usage in lib/inflate.c
inflate_fixed() and huft_build() together use around 2.7k of stack.  When
using 4k stacks, I saw stack overflows from interrupts arriving while
unpacking the root initrd:

[<c04657e2>] unpack_to_rootfs+0x5f2/0x8c1
[<c0465acf>] populate_rootfs+0x1e/0xe4

(This was under Xen, but there's no reason it couldn't happen on bare
hardware.)

This patch mallocs the local variables, thereby reducing the stack
usage to sane levels.
