strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool().
However, the latter is more used within the kernel.

In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.

While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)

This patch is part of a serie that axes all usages of strtobool().
Each patch can be applied independently from the other ones.

The last patch of the serie removes the definition of strtobool().

You may not be in copy of the cover letter. So, if needed, it is available
at [1].


This patch has NOT been compile tested.

Thanks for having the honesty to state that this hasn't been even
compile tested. However, and for fairly obvious reason, I will not
take such patches.

Ok, so, with a sucessful:
sudo apt install libc6-armel-cross libc6-dev-armel-cross binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi libncurses5-dev build-essential bison flex libssl-dev bc
sudo apt install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi g++-arm-linux-gnueabi

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- -j7 allmodconfig

patch -p1 < strtobool.diff

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- -j7 ./drivers/irqchip/irq-gic.o
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- -j7 ./drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-v3.o

can I make you change your mind?
