block: reject invalid queue attribute values
Instead of using simple_strtoul which "converts" invalid numbers to 0, use strict_strtoul and perform error checking to ensure that userspace passes us a valid unsigned long. This addresses problems with functions such as writev, which might want to write a trailing newline -- the newline should rightfully be rejected, but the value preceeding it should be preserved.
