Hi

The first two were my fault, stupid of me to let the "& number" remain :(

The last one was more interesting, se below.
But I can not really see how any error should be handled here?
Proposal to change to:

  if (kstrtol(tempbuf, 16, &num) == 0 && num == 0)


static inline int __must_check kstrtol(const char *s, unsigned int
base, long *res);

"The __must_check annotation makes use of the gcc warn_unused_result
attribute; it first found its way into the mainline in 2.6.8. If a
function is marked __must_check, the compiler will issue a strong
warning whenever the function is called and its return code is unused.
"


Kind regards
