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).
