Yes, I'm pretty sure this patch is correct. The removed assignment is done in 
compr_init() as well:

/**
 * compr_init - initialize a compressor.
 * @compr: compressor description object
 *
 * This function initializes the requested compressor and returns zero in case
 * of success or a negative error code in case of failure.
 */
static int __init compr_init(struct ubifs_compressor *compr)
{
	ubifs_compressors[compr->compr_type] = compr;
	ubifs_compressors[compr->compr_type]->name += gd->reloc_off;
	ubifs_compressors[compr->compr_type]->capi_name += gd->reloc_off;
	ubifs_compressors[compr->compr_type]->decompress += gd->reloc_off;
	return 0;
}

Best regards,
Stefan
