Commonly, in order to handle lz4 worst compress case, caller should allocate buffer with size of LZ4_compressBound(inputsize) for target compressed data storing, however in this case, if caller didn't allocate enough space, lz4 compressor still can handle output buffer budget properly, and end up compressing when left space in output buffer is not enough. So we don't have to allocate buffer with size for worst case, then we can avoid 2 * 4KB size intermediate buffer allocation when log_cluster_size is 2, and avoid unnecessary compressing work of compressor if we can not save at least 4KB space.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
