Hi all,

the following patches attempt to address some issues to the function
parse_size():
- this function is defined both in mkfs.c and cmds-filesystem.c; I
moved it in utils.c (which is already used in both mkfs.btrfs and
btrfs) in order to avoid code duplication.
- it used the function atoll(); I replaceed atoll() with strtoull()
because we are dealing with u64
- no check on suffixes was performed. If the user put 'MB' as suffix he got
bytes instead megabytes. The patches check the suffix is valid
- add new suffixes (t,p,e for terabytes, petabytes, exabytes)
- update the man page of the command mkfs.btrfs and
"btrfs filesystem defragment", both use parse_size()

Several peoples (see cc's) suggested these improvements with different
patches, I collected them togheter.

Please reviewed them, test them. Comments are welcome.

The patches are available also to
