This commit replace the function strict_strtoul(becasue commit 33ee3b2e), and check the return value to avoid such warning:

   drivers/video/via/viafbdev.c:1992: warning: ignoring return value of 'kstrtoul', declared with attribute warn_unused_result

well I'm not against using the new functions but if you do this change please try to have a look why those were introduced.

Ugh, the old code was ugly (casting u8* to unsigned long*) but you did not really improve it although the new functions were introduced for cases like this. You should use kstrtou8() here, I think. It would also be nice if you could add range checks for the value entered as the behavior to -EINVAL on values > 255 but accepting too big values that are <= 255 is not very consistent. Okay, as I know that doing this right would be difficult I'll accept this patch without them or without them being 100% accurate.

Please try to use the correct functions (kstrtoint, ...) here too, basically you should no longer have any need for casting pointers.
