[PATCH v2] devpts: allow mounting with uid/gid of uint32_t

From: Dongsu Park
Date: Tue Aug 18 2015 - 11:18:15 EST


To allow devpts to be mounted with options of uid/gid of uint32_t,
use kstrtouint() instead of match_int(). Doing that, mounting devpts
with uid or gid > (2^31 - 1) will work as expected, e.g.:

# mount -t devpts devpts /tmp/devptsdir -o \
newinstance,ptmxmode=0666,mode=620,uid=3598450688,gid=3598450693

It was originally by reported on systemd github issues:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/956

from v1: fix patch format correctly
