The related kernel function is:
- pci_num_vf, it is introduced from upstream linux-2.6.34. For RHEL-based
kernel, it is defined from RHEL5.9.

- kstrtoul, this function is united kernel API to replace strict_strtoul in
the furture. It is introduced from linux-2.6.39. For RHEL6, it is defined
from RHEL6.4.

This patchset do some compatiblity work for these two functions, and
replace strict_strtoul which is depleted from linux-3.18.

v3:
  Adjust pci_num_vf() introduced RHEL version number.
  Seperate "replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul" into 3 patches for igb_uio,
kni, and xen_dom0. Add compat.h in kni and xen_dom0 for compatible with
older kernels.

v2:
  Merge these two patch in one patchset.
  Compatible with old kernel for kstrtoul.
  Compatible with RHEL6 for pci_num_vf.

Jincheng Miao (4):
  igb_uio: compatible with upstream longterm kernel and RHEL
  igb_uio: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul
  kni: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul
  xen_dom0: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul
