Now that this is not in common.h, perhaps it is acceptable to move this
documentation into the header file.

These functions are useful in U-Boot because they allow a graceful failure
rather than an unpredictable stack overflow when printf() buffers are
exceeded.
Mostly copied from the Linux kernel. I copied vscnprintf and
scnprintf so we can change printf and vprintf to use the safe
implementation but still return the correct values.

assert() is like BUG_ON() but compiles to nothing unless DEBUG is defined.
This is useful when a condition is an error but a board reset is unlikely
to fix it, so it is better to soldier on in hope. Assertion failures should
be caught during development/test.
It turns out that assert() is defined separately in a few places in U-Boot
with various meanings. This patch cleans up some of these.
Build errors exposed by this change (and defining DEBUG) are also fixed in
this patch.

panic: add noreturn attribute
I see the following warnings:
vsprintf.c: In function 'panic':
vsprintf.c:730: warning: 'noreturn' function does return
for nearly all boards. This patch fixes this warning.

as checkpatch proposes to use strict_strtoul instead of
simple_strtoul, introduce it.

The duplication of the do_reset prototype has gotten out of hand,
and they're not all in sync. Unify them all in command.h.

The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".
This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */ while (*++*argv) {
switch (**argv) {
case 'd':
debug++;
break;
...
default:
usage ();
}
}
}
...
}
The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
error: increment of read-only location '*argv'
N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
char *arg = *argv;
while (*++arg) {
switch (*arg) {
...

Now that the other architecture-specific lib directories have been
moved out of the top-level directory there's not much reason to have the
'_generic' suffix on the common lib directory.
