For your information, I have started testing v2024.07 on my powerpc 
boards in operational condition and I have a major problem : U-boot 
doesn't get the Linux kernel started before the watchdog fires. I have 
to disable watchdog to get it running.

This problem doesn't occur with v2024.04.

I bisected it to commit 340fdf1303dc ("zlib: Port fix for CVE-2016-9841 
to U-Boot") and I also confirm that v2024.07-rc5 works well with that 
commit reverted on top of it.

Any idea of what is going wrong with that commit ?
