The point is using 'strtoul' instead of your functions, so that you won't need
'get_hex_val()' at all, or won't need 'isxdigit()' because 'strtoul' will check
it, won't need size should be multiply of two restriction '(*size & 1)' because
of implementation change. Probably you will need NULL checks, but again point is
why not using 'strtoul' instead of writing your version of it?
