Revert ff1522bb7d9845 ("initramfs: cleanup incomplete rootfs").

Andy reports

: This breaks my setup where I have U-boot provided more size of initramfs
: than needed.  This allows a bit of flexibility to increase or decrease
: initramfs compressed image without taking care of bootloader.  The proper
: solution is to do this if we sure that we didn't get enough memory,
: otherwise I can't consider the error fatal to clean up rootfs.
