We often need to retrieve hexadecimal kernel parameters.
Let's implement a shared utility to do it.

Often?

My main problem with this patch is that it doesn't belong into the s390
library. atol() is already in string.c so htol() can be next to it.

util.c already has parse_keyval() so you should be able to extend it a
bit for hex values and add a function below that goes through argv[].

CCing Andrew as he wrote most of the common library

I'd prefer we add strtol(), rather than htol(), as we try to add
common libc functions when possible. It could live in the same
files at atol (string.c/libcflat.h), but we should considering
adding a stdlib.c file some day.

Also, if we had strtol(), than parse_key() could use it with base=0
instead of atol(). That would get pretty close to the implementation
of kernel_arg(). We'd just need to add a

   char *find_key(const char *key, char **array, int array_len)

type of a function to do the command line iterating. Then,

   ret = parse_keyval(find_key("foo", argv, argc), &val);

should be the same as kernel_arg() if find_key returns NULL when
the key isn't found and parse_keyval learns to return -2 when s
is NULL.

Thanks,
drew

Yes it is generally better, but it looks like a much bigger patch to me so I will treat it separately from this series.

Thanks,
Pierre
