Subject: [PATCH v4 2/4] kstrtox: introduce a safer version of memparse()

[BUGS]
Function memparse() lacks error handling:

- If no valid number string at all
  In that case @retptr would just be updated and return value would be
  zero.

- No overflown detection
  This applies to both the number string part, and the suffixes part.
  And since we have no way to indicate errors, we can get weird results
  like:

  	"25E" -> 10376293541461622784 (9E)

  This is due to the fact that for "E" suffix, there is only 4 bits
  left, and 25 with 60 bits left shift would lead to overflow.

[CAUSE]
The root cause is already mentioned in the comments of the function, the
usage of simple_strtoull() is the source of evil.
Furthermore the function prototype is no good either, just returning an
unsigned long long gives us no way to indicate an error.

[FIX]
Due to the prototype limits, we can not have a drop-in replacement for
memparse().

This patch can only help by introduce a new helper, memparse_safe(), and
mark the old memparse() deprecated.

The new memparse_safe() has the following improvement:

- Invalid string detection
  If no number string can be detected at all, -EINVAL would be returned.

- Better overflow detection
  Both the string part and the extra left shift would have overflow
  detection.
  Any overflow would result -ERANGE.

- Safer default suffix selection
  The helper allows the caller to choose the suffixes that they want to
  use.
  But only "KMGTP" are recommended by default since the "E" leaves only
  4 bits before overflow.
  For those callers really know what they are doing, they can still
  manually to include all suffixes.

Due to the prototype change, callers should migrate to the new one and
change their code and add extra error handling.
