I could've misunderstood him. Lemme repeat what I mean:
- we should make kstrtoull() work because it is the right function to
use. Which means, include this too:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181216203113.GA23823@xxxxxxx
- we should gradually start replacing simple_strtoull() in
arch/x86/boot/ and eventually get rid of it. But that's for the TODO
list, to take care of later.
- Take our time and stop with the hurrying and do the whole thing nice
and clean.
Ok?
Or have I forgotten something?
If not, I'll continue looking at your v13.
Thx.
