Subject: lib/decompress: set the compressor name to NULL on error
X-Git-Tag: v4.2-rc3~11^2

lib/decompress: set the compressor name to NULL on error

Without this we end up using the previous name of the compressor in the
loop in unpack_rootfs.  For example we get errors like "compression
method gzip not configured" even when we have CONFIG_DECOMPRESS_GZIP
enabled.
