Hi

The commit 26b6ccf340, "*: simplify checks for gz/bz2/xz magic" breaks the loading of compressed kernel modules.

sudo ./busybox insmod /tmp/scsi_wait_scan.ko.gz
insmod: corrupted data
insmod: can't insert '/tmp/scsi_wait_scan.ko.gz': invalid module format

The same can be seen with other compression formats too (I tested bz2 after gz).
