I was attempting to keep changes isolated as much as possible, but
everyone seems to like to do this differently and I'm still getting a
feel for what you guys prefer. It sounds like Wolfgang would actually
prefer all three of these squashed into a single patch, which I'll do
if there's a v4.

...I'm still awaiting Wolfgang's suggestion for which of the following
he'd like me to submit instead of this series:

1. A stripped down version of the change to use malloc with the caveat
that it's up to the user not to overrun any hardcoded limits in the
kernel (I'm pretty sure that the kernel already has code to
truncate--at least on most platforms).

2. A version of the change to add a platform-specific
COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to u-boot (keeping in sync with the kernel) with a
fix in u-boot to never buffer overrun (changing behavior to truncate).

3. Something else (?)

Thanks!
