> parse_unit_factor() checks if a K, M or G is present after a number and
> multiplies it by 2^10, 2^20 or 2^30, respectively.  One of its callers
> checks if the result is smaller than the number alone to detect
> overflows.  The other one passes 1 as the number and does multiplication
> and overflow check itself in a similar manner.

> This works, but is inconsistent, and it would break if we added support
> for a bigger unit factor.  E.g. 16777217T expands to 2^64 + 2^40, which
> is too big for a 64-bit number.  Modulo 2^64 we get 2^40 == 1TB, which
> is bigger than the raw number 16777217 == 2^24 + 1, so the overflow
> would go undetected by that method.
