This patchset fixes two style issues in lprocfs_status.c related to
simple_strtoul and seq_printf (reported by checkpatch).

There's a slight change in lustre debugfs write semantics: Using kstrtox causes
EINVAL when the written number is followed by other (garbage) characters,
whereas previously the garbage would be ignored and such a write would succeed.

Prefer kstrtouint_from_user to copy_from_user+simple_strtoul.

The helper function lprocfs_wr_uint() is only used to implement
"dump_granted_max" in debugfs.

Note the slight change in semantics: The previous implementation using
simple_strtoul allows garbage after the number, whereas kstrtox only allows
a trailing line break. The previous implementation allowed a write of zero
bytes whereas kstrtox will return -EINVAL. Since this only affects a single
debugfs endpoint, this should be a permissible slight change of semantics
in exchange for 18 fewer lines of code.

Why not just delete this whole function and have the callers make this
call instead?  No need for unneeded wrapper functions of core kernel
calls.

Even better, it looks like this function has no callers on the client and could just
be deleted entirely.

No, the functions lprocfs_{rd,wr}_uint are used once through a macro:
ldlm/ldlm_resource.c calls LPROC_SEQ_FOPS_RW_TYPE(ldlm_rw, uint)
to define ldlm_rw_uint_seq_{show,write}, which then calls
lprocfs_{rd,wr}_uint which in turn call seq_printf/kstrtouint_from_user.

It seems like much indirection for almost no gain besides hiding
access to ((seq_file *) file->private_data)->private in a macro.

If you agree, I will prepare a patch that switches ldlm_resource to
using the LPROC_SEQ_FOPS macro directly, which allows us to remove two
trivial wrappers.
