fs: Replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul in set_ihash_entries
Replace simple_strtoul() with the recommended kstrtoul() for parsing the 'ihash_entries=' boot parameter. Check the return value of kstrtoul() and reject invalid values. This adds error handling while preserving behavior for existing valid values, and removes use of the deprecated simple_strtoul() helper.
