This patch moves the zlib compression and decompression code to a common directory. The zutil.h header, which is not meant to be public, is moved from include/linux/ to lib/zlib/.
You could remove the (now pointless) /* WARNING: ... */ comment from (the now truly private) zutil.h too ...
In addition, the PRESET_DICT definition from zutil.h, used by fs/jffs2/compr_zlib.c is moved to the 'true' public zlib header include/linux/zlib.h.
Ugh, I wish you had held on from this patch till the original thread discussing this reached some conclusion ... from Mark's response there it does seem PRESET_DICT is clearly an implementation (and not interface) detail -- which means to me that it must continue to live in zutil.h (the private header) ... but then, this change is clearly not so critical either, so it doesn't matter much, I guess.
