[U-Boot] [PATCH v4] net: TFTP: variables cleanup and addition

TFTP source and destination port variable names are 'tftpsrcp' and 'tftpdstp' in the code, but 'tftpsrcport' and 'tftpdstport' in the README file. Fix the README.
Add environment variable 'tftptimeoutcountmax'. As per the comments about the global variable tftp_timeout_count_max, make sure tftptimeoutcountmax is nonnegative.
Introduce configuration option CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS, which controls whether environment variables tftpblocksize, tftptimeout, and tftptimoueoutcountmax are read by the TFTP client code. CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS defaults to y but can be set to n by targets with to tight size contraints.
Make bf527-ezkit set CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS to n to keep the target size below limit. --- Changes in v4: - fixed tftp{src,dst}port name typo in README - added control option CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS (default y) - made bf527-ezkit set option to n
Changes in v3: - fixed mixup between tctp_timeout_count_max and timeout_count_max.
Changes in v2: - fixed env var name in commit message

Joe, does it work for bf527-ezkit?

Apparently it is OK to break these boards. It seems it is already broken in the now-current master.

The only new regression with the patches I'm testing (this includes your v4) is this:
+(bf538f-ezkit) bfin-elf-ld.bfd: region `ram' overflowed by 256 bytes
I'm tired of fighting for a byte here or there. I agree that we should not just bloat needlessly, but these boards are simply too close to the limit to be reasonable. I guess they will be broken frequently until someone turns off some features on them.

Applied to u-boot-net/master, thanks! -Joe
