test_kmod: fix bug which allows negative values on two config options

Parsing with kstrtol() enables values to be negative, and we failed to
check for negative values when parsing with test_dev_config_update_uint_sync()
or test_dev_config_update_uint_range().

test_dev_config_update_uint_range() has a minimum check though so an
issue is not present there.  test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() is only
used for the number of threads to use (config_num_threads_store()), and
indeed this would fail with an attempt for a large allocation.

Although the issue is only present in practice with the first fix both
by using kstrtoul() instead of kstrtol().
