This patch replaces the code for getting an number from a userspace buffer by a simple call to kstrou8_from_user. This makes it easier to read and less error prone. Since the old buffers held only values up to 255, we don't need kstrtoul, but rather kstrtou8. Kernel Version: v3.0-rc3 Changes in v2: - Use kstrtou8 instead of kstrtoul due to small numbers - Dropped then unnecessary checks (Both remarks from Alexey Dobriyan, Thanks!)
