Dear Simon,

Drop? AFAICT we never supported octal. Something like "md 040" will start dumping at 0x00000040, right?
There are quite a few places where simple_strtoul() is called with a base of 0. In that case, if the string starts with 0 it is interpreted as octal.
That's a bug, then.
If so it is a 19-year-old bug: (was lib_generic/vsprintc.c)
