Subject: [PATCH] edac: edac_device_sysfs: replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 12:53:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623115323.519298-1-inasj268@gmail.com> (raw)

simple_strtoul is deprecated.  These calls also didn't validate input -
echoing 'garbage' would just set the value to 0 with no error.

Use kstrtoul instead so bogus data gets -EINVAL back.
