I've tried to test the series with:
$ ./test/py/test.py --bd sandbox --build -k ut
(I know ut might not the right filter for this test, but I always test 'ut'
before testing other things)
But I see:
+make O=/var/home/mkorpershoek/work/upstream/u-boot/build-sandbox -s sandbox_defconfig
+make O=/var/home/mkorpershoek/work/upstream/u-boot/build-sandbox -s -j14

Adding env.h inclusion as following fixes it:
diff --git a/lib/gunzip.c b/lib/gunzip.c
index ed05f1d64d7d..98acf4c5b2a7 100644

Maybe this should be included conditionally depending on the command
being enabled or not?
