Subject[PATCH v2 2/2] reboot: fix parsing of reboot cpu number
Date
From: Matteo Croce <mcroce@microsoft.com>

The kernel cmdline reboot= argument allows to specify the CPU used
for rebooting, with the syntax `s####` among the other flags, e.g.

reboot=soft,s4
reboot=warm,s31,force

In the early days the parsing was done with simple_strtoul(), later
deprecated in favor of the safer kstrtoint() which handles overflow.

But kstrtoint() returns -EINVAL if there are non-digit characters
in a string, so if this flag is not the last given, it's silently
ignored as well as the subsequent ones.

To fix it, revert the usage of simple_strtoul(), which is no longer
deprecated, and restore the old behaviour.

While at it, merge two identical code blocks into one.

Fixes: 616feab75397 ("kernel/reboot.c: convert simple_strtoul to kstrtoint")
