The load() methods have inconsistent behaviour on error. Some of them load
an empty default environment. Some load an environment containing an error
message. Others do nothing.
As a step in the right direction, have the method return an error code.
Then the caller could handle this itself in a consistent way.

This variable is declared as a global in most environment location
drivers. But it is not used outside the drivers and most of the
declarations are unnecessary.
Also some drivers call free() on env_ptr which seems wrong since it is
not in the heap.
Drop the variable where possible, and all calls to free().

Add a name to the driver and use that instead of the global variable
declared by each driver.

Most of the init() implementations just use the default environment.
Adjust env_init_new() to do this automatically, and drop the redundant
code.

Move over to use a the master implementation of the location drivers, with
each method calling out to the appropriate driver.

Set up a location driver for each supported environment location. At
present this just points to the global functions and is not used. A
later patch will switch this over to use private functions in each driver.
There are several special cases here in various drivers to handle
peculiarities of certain boards:
1. Some boards define CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT and CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT but
do not actually load the environment in SPL. The env load code was
optimised out before but with the driver, it is not. Therefore a special
case is added to env/fat.c. The correct fix (depending on board testing
might be to disable CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT.
2. A similar situations happens with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH. Some boards
do not actually load the environment in SPL, so to reduce code size we
need to drop that code. A similar fix may be possible with these boards,
or it may be possible to adjust the environment CONFIG settings.
Added to the above is that the CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT option does not
apply when the environment is in flash.
Obviously the above has been discovered through painful and time-consuming
trial and error. Hopefully board maintainers can take a look and figure
out what is actually needed.

At present we have three states for the environment, numbered 0, 1 and 2.
Add an enum to record this to avoid open-coded values.

About a quarter of the files in common/ relate to the environment. It

The env_nand, env_mmc and env_ubi implementations all implement
redundancy using an identical serial-number scheme. This commit
migrates them to use the implementation in env_common, which is
functionally identical.

In case we have restarted u-boot there is a chance that environment
buffer contains old environment (from the previous boot). If UBI volume
is zero size, ubi_volume_read() doesn't modify the buffer and exits
successfully.
We need to clear buffer manually before reading it from UBI, so the
invalid CRC will cause setting default environment in case that the UBI
volume is zero size.

The variable "buf" in this function is a char array, and the
function ubi_volume_read is expecting a char *. In the call, the
address of the pointer is being taken, incorrectly passing a
char **. The compiler warning was being silenced by the cast.
Remove the address operator and the cast.
