During the development phase, we usually enlarge initrd-end to reserve more memory than the initfs zip exactly occupied. Then we can easily add or delete files in zip package, without generate fdt again and again. But unfortunately, if too many zeros followed initfs zip, it will take a long time to break the loop.
while (!message && len) { ... ... if (!*buf) { buf++; ... ... continue; }
So, use the boot option "initramfs_packnum" to specify how many zip packages in each initrd area. When the specified number of packages decompressed in one area, immediately terminate the loop. Have no impact on current use by default.
