  init_stat() failure

  having tests pass through an unvalidated format string.

  + 4/6 minor changes for test context and comment
- add review tags for 3/6, 5/6 and 6/6 following list feedback

v3: 20260323150054.3587083-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com

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.

Changelog v3:
- rebased on top of latest kernel
- squashed patches proposed by David
