Eek, sorry this is causing you trouble!

Is there any way you can extract just the gzipped kernel from this
image? I'm not sure how to get at it from this .ub file.

Either my change is failing to detect end-of-buffer correctly, or it
_is_, in which case this has uncovered an unsafe caller of gunzip.
This is after the "Uncompressing" message, so it's this caller:
case IH_COMP_GZIP:
printf(" Uncompressing %s ... ", type_name);
if (gunzip(load_buf, unc_len, image_buf, &image_len) != 0) {
puts("GUNZIP: uncompress, out-of-mem or overwrite "
"error - must RESET board to recover\n");
if (boot_progress)
bootstage_error(BOOTSTAGE_ID_DECOMP_IMAGE);
return BOOTM_ERR_RESET;
}
*load_end = load + image_len;
break;
If the uncompressed length of the kernel image is larger than
"unc_len", then this is catching a legitimate memory overflow. This is
entirely controlled by CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN. Is it possible this is
set too low for your build?
