Replace simple_strtoul() with the recommended kstrtouint() for parsing
the 'spin_retry=' boot parameter. Unlike simple_strtoul(), which returns
an unsigned long, kstrtouint() converts the string directly to an
unsigned integer.
Check the return value of kstrtouint() and reject invalid values. This
adds error handling while preserving existing behavior for valid values,
and removes use of the deprecated simple_strtoul() helper.
