I wanted to pack all the parsing related params passed to
parse_subscription_options into a single structure since this is one
of the main points (reducing the number of function params) on which
the patch is coded.

The coverity was complaining FORWARD_NULL which, I think, can occur
with the pointers. In the patch, we don't deal with the pointers for
the options but with the bitmaps. So, I don't think we need that
assertion. However, we can look for the coverity warnings in the
buildfarm after this patch gets in and fix if found any warnings.

Yes. Modified.
Thanks for taking a look at this. PFA v8 patch set for further review.
