Hi Masa,

After retest, I make clean and make again.
I met the problem is the useless #endif issue you mentioned.
But I found both:

#ifndef BOOT_STRING
EXPORT_SYMBOL(kstrtoull);

and

EXPORT_SYMBOL(kstrtoull);
#ifndef BOOT_STRING

work for me. So I don't know the key problem, cause the config you
mentioned are y.

Thanks,
Chao Fan
