[PATCH net-next v2 0/3] netfilter: conntrack: add shared port parser and use it in IRC and Amanda helpers

[HACKE-RC]

Both nf_conntrack_irc and nf_conntrack_amanda parse port numbers
from application-layer protocol data using simple_strtoul(), which
relies on nul-terminated strings and returns unsigned long without
range checking. Port values above 65535 silently truncate when
stored in u16.

This v2 adds a shared nf_ct_helper_parse_port() function to the
conntrack helper core, modeled after the approach in 8cf6809cddcb
("netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: don't use simple_strtoul"), then
converts both helpers to use it.

Changes since v1:
  - Added shared nf_ct_helper_parse_port() in the helper core
    instead of open-coding range checks in each helper (Pablo)
  - Parser does not rely on nul-terminated strings
  - Dropped simple_strtoul usage entirely for port parsing

HACKE-RC (3):
  netfilter: conntrack: add shared port parser for helpers
  netfilter: nf_conntrack_irc: use nf_ct_helper_parse_port()
  netfilter: nf_conntrack_amanda: use nf_ct_helper_parse_port()
