54841ab50c Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.
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) {
			...

5c97a1de19 VoiceBlue: fix linker errors
linking eeprom with libgeneric.a is not really needed and causes following
error:
../../lib_generic/libgeneric.a(string.o): In function `strcmp':
/home/ladis/src/u-boot-ti/lib_generic/string.c:152: multiple definition of `strcmp'
../../examples/standalone/libstubs.a(stubs.o):include/_exports.h:24: first defined here
make[1]: *** [eeprom.srec] Error 1

Fix undefined reference to memset generated by some versions of gcc
to zero out initialized structure on the stack:
eeprom.o: In function `eeprom':
board/voiceblue/eeprom.c:152: undefined reference to `memset'
make[1]: *** [eeprom] Error 1

7194ab8095 Convert SMC91111 Ethernet driver to CONFIG_NET_MULTI API
All in-tree boards that use this controller have CONFIG_NET_MULTI
added
Also:
  - changed CONFIG_DRIVER_SMC91111 to CONFIG_SMC91111
  - cleaned up line lengths
  - modified all boards that override weak function in this driver
  - modified all eeprom standalone apps to work with new driver
  - updated blackfin standalone EEPROM app after testing
