I agree with Glenn.

I concur...

The byte and value should be defined as an unsigned long.

In general I think we should not use shortened checks for enums and NULL.
Even if they work...

AFAICT the grub_errno is not reliable here. The good example how the
grub_strtoul() result should be checked is in the commit ac8a37dda
(net/http: Allow use of non-standard TCP/IP ports).

Ditto and below please...

Could you put this function before grub_cmd_cmoswrite()?

The byte should be defined as an unsigned long.

I would prefer if this is defined at the top of the function.

Please add commands descriptions to the GRUB documentation.
