[PATCH v2] KDB: Fix incorrect treatment of numbers in the CLI

[Nir Lichtman]

Problem: In many cases, KDB treats invalid commands as numbers and
instead of printing a usage error, goes ahead and just prints the number
in hex

Example: This can be demonstrated when typing for example "aaazzz", this
confuses KDB into thinking this is the hexadecimal 0xAAA

Solution: Transition to using kstrtoul instead of simple_strtoul.
This function is more strict with what it treats as a number
and thus solves the issue.
(also better practice as stated in the definition of simple_strtoul).

v2: Removed redundant if condition I put in v1
