From e291851d65495739e4eede33b6bc387bb546a19b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Shevchenko Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2020 20:43:27 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] lib/cmdline: fix get_option() for strings starting with hyphen When string doesn't have an integer and starts from hyphen get_option() may return interesting results. Fix it to return 0. The simple_strtoull() is used due to absence of simple_strtoul() in a boot code on some architectures. Note, the Fixes tag below is rather for anthropological curiosity.
