Bug Description
The kernel release reported by uname -r is not always purely numeric (e.g., 5.4.0-31-generic). The kver_to_num() function in growpart assumes the release component is purely numeric.
When the kernel release is 4.19.97+, the following error is reported:
/usr/bin/growpart: 506: /usr/bin/growpart: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: "4*1000*
Stripping trailing characters should be sufficient. Patch attached.
