The error handling looks good to me.  In addition to Andrew's
suggestion and the removal of word termination check, some nitpicking
below:

A more common variable name is err or ret for such a purpose.

This looks inconsistent, the first one uses parse_integer() while the
second kstrtouint().  Better to stick with one API.
