BSD's strtonum(3) is a detestful, horrible shame.
The strtol_check_range() I implemented here does _all_ that strtonum()
does, plus is generic

Callers (especially "store" functions for sysfs or configfs attributes)
that want to convert an input string to a number may often also want to
check for simple input sanity or allowable range. strtol10_check_range()
of netconsole does this, so extract it out into lib/vsprintf.c, make it
