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) {

Use shorter yet descriptive messages, replace printf() with
puts() where appropriate. This saves few bytes.

Defining partially initialized struct eth_device on stack means
gcc has to zero out it, and some gcc versions optimize this with
an implicit call to memset. Move definition to data section
to avoid that (it has also nice side effect that we need not
to pass it to helper functions anymore)

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
