That would involve adding it to fastboot_resp(), which is called 11 
times in this code, from 3 different functions (so would need to add 
this to two of the functions...). And as these evolve, there will likely 
be more nested functions, which would all require "passing it around"....
I think that this "static global pointer" is a cleaner implementation.

snprintf() is used very sparingling in U-Boot, and with the cautionary 
statements in README (line 852) and the fact that CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF 
is not defined for armv7 builds, I am not going to use it....

Generally, the printf() statements which are sent to the console, and 
the fastboot_resp() statements which are sent to the host running the 
"fastboot" application are not the same....

done in v4 - Thanks!
