The simple_str* family of functions perform no error checking in
scenarios where the input value overflows the intended output variable.
This results in these function successfully returning even when the
output does not match the input string.

Or as it was mentioned [1], "...simple_strtol(), simple_strtoll(),
simple_strtoul(), and simple_strtoull() functions explicitly ignore
overflows, which may lead to unexpected results in callers."
Hence, the use of those functions is discouraged.

Applied, thanks!
