Linus Torvalds	c231c7db30	Revert unnecessary zlib_inflate/inftrees.c fix It turns out that empty distance code tables are not an error, and that a compressed block with only literals can validly have an empty table and should not be flagged as a data error. Some old versions of gzip had problems with this case, but it does not affect the zlib code in the kernel.

Revert unnecessary zlib_inflate/inftrees.c fix

It turns out that empty distance code tables are not an error, and that
a compressed block with only literals can validly have an empty table
and should not be flagged as a data error.

Some old versions of gzip had problems with this case, but it does not
affect the zlib code in the kernel.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
