SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/2] docs: lzo: fix incorrect statement about distance zero for EOS
Date
Looks good to me, thanks

The encoded distance bits are zero, but the distance that is
calculated from this is actually equal to 16384. So correct
this statement to read that the 0001HLLL instruction means
EOS when a distance of 16384 is seen. This matches with the
description of the instruction itself later on.
