bzip2/lzma: remove nasty uncompressed size hack in pre-boot environment
decompress_bunzip2 and decompress_unlzma have a nasty hack that subtracts 4 from the input length if being called in the pre-boot environment. This is a nasty hack because it relies on the fact that flush = NULL only when called from the pre-boot environment (i.e. arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c). initramfs.c/do_mounts_rd.c pass in a flush buffer (flush != NULL). This hack prevents the decompressors from being used with flush = NULL by other callers unless knowledge of the hack is propagated to them. This patch removes the hack by making decompress (called only from the pre-boot environment) a wrapper function that subtracts 4 from the input length before calling the decompressor.
