<content type='text'>
This patch re-formats the arm920t s3c24x0 driver files, excluding the nand
driver, in preparation for changes to add support for the Embest SBC2440-II Board.

The changes are as follows:
- re-indent the code using Lindent
- make sure register layouts are defined using a C struct
- replace the upper-case typedef'ed C struct names with lower case
  non-typedef'ed ones
- make sure registers are accessed using the proper accessor functions
- run checkpatch.pl and fix any error reports

It assumes the following patch has been applied first:
- [U-Boot][PATCH-ARM] CONFIG_SYS_HZ fix for ARM902T S3C24X0 Boards, 05/09/2009
- patches 1/4 and 2/4 of this series

Tested on an Embest SBC2440-II Board with local u-boot patches as I don't have
any s3c2400 or s3c2410 boards but need this patch applying before I can submit
patches for the SBC2440-II Board. Also, temporarily modified sbc2410x, smdk2400,
smdk2410 and trab configs to use the mtd nand driver (which isn't used by any
board at the moment), ran MAKEALL for all ARM9 targets and no new warnings or
errors were found.

The TRAB board references local libgcc helper routines
(lib_arm/div0.o and lib_arm/_umodsi3.o) which cause build problems
when we try to use the normal, compiler provided libgcc instead.
Removing these references allows to build both with and without the
local libgcc helper routines.

<title>Make linking against libgcc configurable</title>

<content type='text'>
Many (especially ARM) tool chains seem to come with broken or
otherwise unusable (for the purposes of builing U-Boot) run-time
support libraries `libgcc.a'. By using the "USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC"
setting we allow to use alternative libraries instead.

"USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC" can either be set as an environment variable in
the shell, or as a command line argument when running "make", i. e.
	$ make USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=yes
or
	$ USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=yes
	$ export USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC
	$ make

The value of "USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC" is the name of the directory which
contains the alternative run-time support library `libgcc.a'. The
special value "yes" selects the directory $(OBJTREE)/lib_$(ARCH) .

Note that not all architectures provide an alternative `libgcc.a' in
their lib_$(ARCH) directories - so far, only ARM does.

<title>stdio/device: rework function naming convention</title>

<id>52cb4d4fb3487313f5a72ea740f527a4aefaa365</id>
<content type='text'>
So far the console API uses the following naming convention:

	======Extract======
	typedef struct device_t;

	int	device_register (device_t * dev);
	int	devices_init (void);
	int	device_deregister(char *devname);
	struct list_head* device_get_list(void);
	device_t* device_get_by_name(char* name);
	device_t* device_clone(device_t *dev);
	=======

which is too generic and confusing.

Instead of using device_XX and device_t we change this
into stdio_XX and stdio_dev

This will also allow to add later a generic device mechanism in order
to have support for multiple devices and driver instances.

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:
	=&gt; help dtt
	dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt         - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.

After:
	=&gt; help dtt
	dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt

<title>Redundant Environment: protect full sector size</title>

<id>dfcd7f21607fd847236b04bb1a8d59a7c10ab99c</id>
<content type='text'>
Several boards used different ways to specify the size of the
protected area when enabling flash write protection for the sectors
holding the environment variables: some used CONFIG_ENV_SIZE and
CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND, some used CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, and some even
a mix of both for the "normal" and the "redundant" areas.

Normally, this makes no difference at all. However, things are
different when you have to deal with boards that can come with
different types of flash chips, which may have different sector
sizes.

Here we may have to chose CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE such that it fits the
biggest sector size, which may include several sectors on boards using
the smaller sector flash types. In such a case, using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
or CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND to enable the protection may lead to the
case that only the first of these sectors get protected, while the
following ones aren't.

This is no real problem, but it can be confusing for the user -
especially on boards that use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE to protect the
"normal" areas, while using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND for the
"redundant" area.

To avoid such inconsistencies, I changed all sucn boards that I found
to consistently use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE for protection. This should
not cause any functional changes to the code.
