There are some issues in parse_num_list():
1. The end variable is assigned twice when parsing_end is true. 2. The function does not check that parsing_end should finally be false.
Clean up parse_num_list() and fix these issues.

It would be great to also explain user-visible bug. What do you do to trigger bugs? Can you please put that into the commit message, in a before/after fashion? Thanks!

There are some issues in parse_num_list():
First, the end variable is assigned twice when parsing_end is true, it is unnecessary.
Second, the function does not check that parsing_end is false after parsing argument. Thus, if the final part of the argument is something like '4-', parse_num_list() will discard it instead of returning -EINVAL.
Clean up parse_num_list() and fix these issues.

I think the new structure of the code is actually harder to follow and there is no need to change this code in the first place just to optimize away parsing_end assignmet.
