Note that the LZ4 signature is different than that of modern LZ4 as we

The first time this was sent I managed to screw up both the subject and
scissors line, so it's likely whatever filter you're using didn't notice
the patch inside a thread.
ZSTD compression for vmlinux is not yet in, but being able to unpack it
can't hurt. LZ4 is in for quite a while.
