[U-Boot] tiny printf limits

[U-Boot] tiny printf limits

[Frank Mori Hess]

Shouldn't tiny printf abort or something when it encounters a printf
format string it doesn't support?  Right now, it just silently skips
it while leaving the associated argument in place, resulting in the
arguments getting shifted onto the wrong format strings.

It's for tiny situations.  If there's a case where something is printing
and it's getting printed wrong we need to decide what to do about that
print, or the format it's using.

That said, if you can, in a tiny way, make the code behave better, I'd
be happy to review that too.  Thanks!
