namespace: Replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul to parse boot params
Replace simple_strtoul() with the recommended kstrtoul() for parsing the 'mhash_entries=' and 'mphash_entries=' boot parameters. Check the return value of kstrtoul() and reject invalid values. This adds error handling while preserving behavior for existing values, and removes use of the deprecated simple_strtoul() helper.
