Commit 8a3a7e2270b3 ("env: Pass additional parameters to the env

get_char() defined. This causes failure to get environmental

Thinking more about this, I think this would break the case where the
first environment in your list has no get_char method, but the second
might.


How can we decide which way is wanted? With your patch below, we might end up loading chars from a low-prio environment (which is not CRC checked) in the early boot stage. Later, we load the environment from another env driver with higher priority.

That's why I suggested removing the 'get_char' callback from the env drivers :-) Early boot stage environment lookups would still work the old way reading from 'gd->env_addr + index'.

Would something like that work?
