With this patch now, the tiny printf() function also supports numbers
bigger than 0xffff. Additionally the code is simplified a bit and
some static variables are moved to function parameters. Also the
upper case hex variable output support is removed, as its not really
needed in this simple printf version. And removing it reduces the
complexity and the code size again a bit.
Here the new numbers, again on the db-mv784mp-gp (Armada XP):

This patch adds a small printf() version that supports all basic formats.
Its intented to be used in U-Boot SPL versions on platforms with very
limited internal RAM sizes.
To enable it, just define CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF in your defconfig. This
will result in the SPL using this tiny function and the main U-Boot
still using the full-blown printf() function.
This code was copied from:
http://www.sparetimelabs.com/printfrevisited
With mostly only coding style related changes so that its checkpatch
clean.
The size reduction is about 2.5KiB. Here a comparison for the db-mv784mp-gp
(Marvell AXP) SPL:
Without this patch:

With this patch:
56542 18536 1956 77034 12cea ./spl/u-boot-spl
Note:
To make it possible to compile tiny-printf.c instead of vsprintf.c when
CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF is defined, the functions printf() and vprintf() are
moved from common/console.c into vsprintf.c in this patch.
