We currently believe that the decoding error reported in dmesg is actually harmless and has no impact on usability on the system.

Switching from lz4 to gzip compression, simply papers over the warning, without any benefits, and slows down boot.

Kernel should be fixed to correctly parse lz4 compressed initrds, or at least lower the warning, to not be user visible as an error.
