I have to admit I don't know that quirks stuff, so it's well possible
that I'm wrong here.

Consider that there is an ongoing transaction and before it completes
the adapter-device is unbound from the driver. Then i2c_del_adapter is
called which frees the resources managed by the core, then the device's
completion irq triggers and the freed adapter is used which probably
results in an oops.
