In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this moves the stack buffer used during decompression to be allocated externally. The existing "dest_max_index" used in the VLA is bounded by cb_max_page. cb_max_page is bounded by max_page, and max_page is bounded by nr_pages. Since nr_pages is used for the "pages" allocation, it can similarly be used for the "completed_pages" allocation and passed into the decompression function. The error paths are updated to free the new allocation.
