kstrto*: correct documentation references to simple_strto*()
The documentation of the kstrto*() functions reference the simple_strtoull function by "used as a replacement for [the obsolete] simple_strtoull". All these functions describes themselves as replacements for the function simple_strtoull, even though a function like kstrtol() would be more aptly described as a replacement of simple_strtol(). Fix these references by making the documentation of kstrto*() reference the closest simple_strto*() equivalent available. The functions kstrto[u]int() do not have direct simple_strto[u]int() equivalences, so these are made to refer to simple_strto[u]l() instead. Furthermore, add parentheses after function names, as is standard in kernel documentation.
