When match_int fails, the lack of error-handling code may
cause unexpected results.

This patch adds error-handling code after calling match_int.

Please return the error code returned by match_int() instead of -EINVAL.

Thanks,

Bart.

The first observation is that this would leak the kmalloc'd orig
variable, but the second is that I don't think terminating parsing is
the right thing to do even if match_int() returns an error: just
ignoring this option and proceed to the next seems to be the best
course because that's what we do with unrecognised options (the
default: case).

James
