Because spl.h contains some codes have its dependency with SPL. So, Tom
adviced to make this part of code depend on CONFIG_SPL.
However, only __weak int init_mmc() depend on the codes from spl.h, so
user can override their own init_mmc() if SPL is not used.

Okay so i will change to usb_stor_scan(0) .

This may need to add the logic for splitting the device number and
partition into integer from the string. Let me think how to do it, may
be i can leverage existing code.

No compile error. When you open the file, "%s\n" is actually same line
with debug("..... .
