JFFS2 is crashing the kernel

[Sanjay Kumar]

Hi All,
I am using JFFS2 for AMD flash running on a MIPS processor 
and till now I had no problems. but suddenly while reading a file 
from Flash, the kernel crashed. I am using Linux 2.4.2
I got the following trace -

5>inflate returned -4

By the trace it seems that the kernel crashed when JFFS2 is calling the 
zlib_decompress() for reading the file.

Did anybody got this problem? Also can some one help me in understanding the 
problem.
Thanks,
Sanjay
