identify_ramdisk_image() returns 0 (not -1) if a gzipped ramdisk is found:
if (buf[0] == 037 && ((buf[1] == 0213) || (buf[1] == 0236))) {
printk(KERN_NOTICE
"RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block %d\n",
start_block);
nblocks = 0;
^^^^^^^^^^^
goto done;
}
...
done:
sys_lseek(fd, start_block * BLOCK_SIZE, 0);
kfree(buf);
return nblocks;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hence correct the typo in the comment, which has existed since the addition of
compressed ramdisk support in 1.3.48.
