[PATCH] x86: 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:

(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.
Also, up the heap size for the kernel decompressor to deal with the
extra allocation.
