[U-Boot] Increase command line size

[Wolfgang Denk]

Dear Paulo,

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

Q: Why is it such a bad thing?

A: Top-posting.

Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?


And you not only top-post, you also full-quote. And you post HTML,
even though this is strictly forbidden on this list.

You are ignoring Netiquette more or less completely, are you aware of
this?

I think you should read

really carefully.

There is no inherent limit on the length of an environment variable.
It can grow as long as you have memory for it.
