Rework get_device_and_partition() to:
a) Implement a new partition ID of "auto", which requests that U-Boot
search for the first "bootable" partition, and fall back to the first
valid partition if none is found. This way, users don't need to
specify an explicit partition in their commands.
b) Make use of get_device().
c) Add parameter to indicate whether returning a whole device is
acceptable, or whether a partition is mandatory.
d) Make error-checking of the user's device-/partition-specification
more complete. In particular, if strtoul() doesn't convert all
characters, it's an error rather than just ignored.
The resultant device/partition returned by the function will be as
follows, based on whether the disk has a partition table (ptable) or not,
and whether the calling command allows the whole device to be returned
or not.
(D and P are integers, P >= 1)
D
D:
No ptable:
!allow_whole_dev: error
allow_whole_dev: device D
ptable:
device D partition 1
D:0
!allow_whole_dev: error
allow_whole_dev: device D
D:P
No ptable: error
ptable: device D partition P
D:auto
No ptable:
!allow_whole_dev: error
allow_whole_dev: device D
ptable:
first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
If none, first valid paratition in device D.
Note: In order to review this patch, it's probably easiest to simply
look at the file contents post-application, rather than reading the
patch itself.

[swarren: Rob implemented scanning for bootable partitions. I fixed a
couple of issues there, switched the syntax to ":auto", added the
error-checking rework, and ":0" syntax for the whole device]

Convert reiserload and reiserls to use common device and partition parsing
function. With the common function "dev:part" can come from the
environment and a '-' can be used in that case.

Change all files in common/ to use CMD_RET_USAGE instead of calling
cmd_usage() directly. I'm not completely sure about this patch since
the code since impact is small (100 byte or so on ARM) and it might
need splitting into smaller patches. But for now here it is.

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

This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form
and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can
be removed entirely.
All transformations are of the form:
Before:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
After:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
