do_header() is called for each cpio entry and first checks for "newc" magic before parsing further. The magic check includes a special case error message if POSIX.1 ASCII (cpio -H odc) magic is detected. This special case POSIX.1 check needn't be done in the hot path, so move it under the non-newc-magic error path.
