[LinuxBIOS] [PATCH] v3: lar header walk off-by-one

[Carl-Daniel Hailfinger]

OK, this patch is not for the weak of hart because it touches some logic
we had lots of problems with in the past.
Basically, the lar archive header walk will not see a header at the end
of the archive if nothing is after that header. However, since a file
with zero size is a legal lar member, we really can't forbid to look at
a header terminating the archive.
