param_bitmask behaves similar to an enum, except that with a bitmask
multiple values can be specified. On the command line the bits are
represented as a space separated list of strings. In memory a
unsigned long * is used as backend storage, this can be modified
using the regular bitmap functions.

This patch fixes the behaviour when a driver creates a globalvar using
globalvar_add_simple_[string|int|bool|enum|ip]) *after* nvvars are
initialized and this globalvar is overwritten with a nvvar. Currently
this fix is not needed because all globalvars are registered before the
nvvars are initialized.
We have two different typed of globalvars. The first type, here referred
to as qualified globalvars, has a backend variable storage (the ones
created with globalvar_add_simple_[string|int|bool|enum|ip]), the other
created with globalvar_add_simple only has a dynamically allocted string
as backend.
Normally during startup of barebox the qualified globalvars are
registered and during load of nvvars are synced with the values from the
nvvars. Everything works fine in this case. However, when during nvvar
initialisation a globalvar for a nvvar does not exist, then it is
registered as unqualified globalvar. When then later some driver wants
to register a qualified globalvar for which a unqualified globalvar
already exists, it will get a -EEXIST. This is not the expected
behaviour. Instead, the current unqualified globalvar should be removed,
recreated as qualified globalvar and then afterwards synced with the
corresponding nvvar. This behaviour is fixed with this patch.

Not only the array containing the pointers should be const but
also the strings themselves, so instead of using const char **
use const char * const *.

Commit 03b59bdb64 (paramter: The dev_add_param_*() return ERR_PTR(),
change no-ops to return ERR_PTR(-ENOSYS) instead of NULL) started using
ERR_PTR and errnos without including the relevant header.
This fixes the build for a lot of configurations.

dev_add_param creates a new parameter so it makes more sense to
return it than to return an error code. Since the return value
is hardly ever checked this is only a small patch.

This function allows drivers to create a string parameter and
provides access to it via a pointer. Using regular dev_add_param
only allows access via dev_get_param().

unsigned long is 64bit wide on some architectures. Make IPaddr_t a
typedef to uint32_t to make sure it's 32bit wide.

This adds a convenience function to register a MAC address device
parameter. The only current user is converted to use it.

We recently gained helper functions for different types of
device parameters. One thing missing was a helper for an
enum type parameter. This patch adds this.

Some parameters may wish to provide some information about their

This adds convenience functions for directly registering integers
and bools as device parameter. This way driver no longer have to
fiddle with string handling. The format used to print the parameter
is passed to the functions to be able to print parameters in a
flexible way.

Commit 51f2ded17c ("param: make return
value of param getter function const") made the parameter getter const,
but neglected to change the dev_add_param() function prototype in the
!CONFIG_PARAMETER case.
Fixes the following warning with CONFIG_NAND and !CONFIG_PARAMETER:
drivers/mtd/nand/nand_base.c: In function 'add_mtd_nand_device':
drivers/mtd/nand/nand_base.c:1720:2: warning: passing argument 4 of 'dev_add_param' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]

Change device parameters so that the memory management is in generic
code. This also removes the need of storing statically initialized
parameters as they are stored in a struct list_head for each device.
