The bootm initrd image copy to ram can collide with the stack in cases
where the print buffer size is large (i.e. 1K). The result is intermittent
initrd decompression errors depending on the initrd size MOD 4KB since
the initrd start address is 4KB aligned.

Can you please apply this fix. I've seen other issues posted that appear
to be the same cause and this same issue was fixed on PPC ~2 years ago.
