No, we can't apply this as is--see the recent revert of a similar
change, below.

kstrtoint does not have the same behavior as simple_strtol, so don't
blindly replace one by the other.  At a bare minimum the changelog
should have a note about the differences to help maintainers determine
if the change will cause problems.

    svcrpc: Revert "sunrpc/cache.h: replace simple_strtoul"
    
    Commit bbf43dc888833ac0539e437dbaeb28bfd4fbab9f "sunrpc/cache.h: replace
    simple_strtoul" introduced new range-checking which could cause get_int
    to fail on unsigned integers too large to be represented as an int.
    
    We could parse them as unsigned instead--but it turns out svcgssd is
    actually passing down "-1" in some cases.  Which is perhaps stupid, but
    there's nothing we can do about it now.
    
    So just revert back to the previous "sloppy" behavior that accepts
    either representation.
