[U-Boot] U-Boot Scripting suggestions to decrement counter in EEPROM. Alignment bug in itest on ARM.

I'm implementing a rather complex boot that involves flags and counters in EEPROM. This is to detect multiple boot failures and to then revert to a previous Linux kernel and sysroot. The Hush shell and applications almost support this by using scripts (even autoscripting), but not quite. "ee
