+ *  include a single newline before its terminating null. The first character
+ *  may also be a plus sign, but not a minus sign.
+ * @base: The number base to use. The maximum supported base is 16. If base is
+ *  given as 0, then the base of the string is automatically detected with the
+ *  conventional semantics - If it begins with 0x the number will be parsed as a
+ *  hexadecimal (case insensitive), if it otherwise begins with 0, it will be
+ *  parsed as an octal number. Otherwise it will be parsed as a decimal.
+ * @res: Where to write the result of the conversion on success.
+ *
+ * Returns 0 on success, -ERANGE on overflow and -EINVAL on parsing error.
+ * Used as a replacement for the simple_strtoull.
