The series that introduced simple_strntoul() had passed into kernel
without proper review and hence reinvented a wheel that's not needed.
Here is the refactoring to show that. It can go via PRINTK or VFS
tree.
I have tested this on x86, but I believe the same result will be
on big-endian CPUs (I deduced that from how strtox() works).
I also run KUnit tests.
