I got the hint, thanks :)

size before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 204117	  13520	  28716	 246353	  3c251	u-boot

size after:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 203893	  13500	  28716	 246109	  3c15d	u-boot

So it also got smaller by 244 bytes.
Updated patch, with signoff and Jean-Christophe
comment addressed.

Subject: [PATCH] Change env_get_char from a global function ptr to
 a function. This avoids an early global data reference.
