I'm afraid I find this sort of code hard to read, due to the side effect withinn an 'if' expression. The GNU coding standards say "Try to avoid assignments inside if-conditions (assignments inside while-conditions are ok)." <https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Syntactic-Conventions.html> Can you please redo the patch to avoid this sort of thing? Perhaps with a wrapper around xstrtoul? Thanks.
