Boib is right, the change in sysfs.c is OK, but the one in evgpeinit.c isn't (this code is automatically generated from the upstream ACPICA source and manual updates of it are painful). You might provide a strtoul() wrapper around kstrtoul() instead of its definition in acpi/platform/aclinux.h, though.
