4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit ef951599074ba4fad2d0efa0a977129b41e6d203 upstream. Create the kstrtobool_from_user() helper and move strtobool() logic into the new kstrtobool() (matching all the other kstrto* functions). Provides an inline wrapper for existing strtobool() callers.
