[PATCH 12/30] input: Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool()
Posted by Christophe JAILLET 3 years, 5 months ago
strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool().
However, the latter is more used within the kernel.

In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.

While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)

This patch is part of a serie that axes all usages of strtobool().
Each patch can be applied independently from the other ones.

The last patch of the serie removes the definition of strtobool().

You may not be in copy of the cover letter. So, if needed, it is available
at [1].

Please feel free to merge with the rest of the series. Or let me know if
you want me to pick just this one through my tree.

Thanks.

Hi,

the patch can go through your tree.
There is no plan to merge the whole serie at once, and some other 
maintainers have asked for some patches to be re-sent as individual patches.
