This patch has been verified to apply cleanly to 2.5.30
This patch ensures that we report failures when unzipping ramdisks and the
like, including if we fail to write to the ramdisk.
Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that the gunzip function will
ever terminate (gzip itself uses a setjmp and longjmp to achieve this).
