This series introduces a new generic function strtolower(), which converts strings to lowercase in-place, overwriting the original string. This kind of functionality is needed in several places in the kernel. Right now, everybody seems to be implementing their own copy of this function. So, we replace several custom "strtolower" implementations with this new library function. Another

This series introduces a family of generic string case conversion functions. This kind of functionality is needed in several places in the kernel. Right now, everybody seems to be implementing their own copy of this functionality. Based on the discussion of the previous version of this series[1] and the use cases found in the kernel, it does look like having several flavours of case conversion

Call strtolower() rather than walking the string explicitly to convert it to lowercase.

Add a function called strtolower() to convert strings to lower case in-place, overwriting the original string. This seems to be a recurring requirement in the kernel that is currently being solved by several duplicated implementations doing the same thing.
