Depends what you mean by "strong math basics". You'll *definitely* need to understand decimal/hexadecimal/binary/octal and how to convert between them. Understanding algebra is useful. If you've had some intro to complexity theory so you understand why an O(N^2) algorithm is usually worse than one that's O(N log N), that helps. Also, knowing enough computing theory to understand what a finite state machine is, and why to use one, and how to write code to implement one, is useful. You *probably* don't need calculus or deep number theory or a lot of other pure math. Programming in the kernel doesn't require any more math than what's required for competent programming in userspace.
