This adds a new SPI flash command which only rewrites blocks if the contents
need to change. This can speed up SPI flash programming when much of the
data is unchanged from what is already there.

Currently when you call ROUND with a value that is already a
multiple of the second parameter it will return a value that is
one multiple larger, instead of returning the value passed in.
There are only two types of usage of ROUND currently, one in
various config files to round CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN to a multiple
of 4096 bytes. The other in cmd_sf.c where the incorrect behavior
of ROUND is worked around be subtracting one from the length argument
before passing it to ROUND.
This patch fixes ROUND and removes the workaround from cmd_sf. It
also results in all of the malloc pools that use ROUND to compute
their size shrinking by 4KB.

This patch adds [+]len handler for the erase command that will
automatically round up the requested erase length to the flash's
sector_size.

Lots of code use this construct:
cmd_usage(cmdtp);
return 1;
Change cmd_usage() let it return 1 - then we can replace all these
ocurrances by
return cmd_usage(cmdtp);
This fixes a few places with incorrect return code handling, too.

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) {
...

Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.
Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.
This patch cleans this up - for example:
Before:
=> help dtt
dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.
After:
=> help dtt
dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt

Remove command name from all command "usage" fields and update
common/command.c to display "name - usage" instead of
just "usage". Also remove newlines from command usage fields.

This adds a new command, "sf" which can be used to manipulate SPI
flash. Currently, initialization, reading, writing and erasing is
supported.
