Was hitting null pointers and similar issues when running various
module load/unload and inject failure type tests. So clear those
pointers down when the objects have been de-allocated.

Had a quick chat with John about the incorrect pointer access, since the cleanup wouldn't fix the fact we're accessing a pointer after the relevant object was deallocated. None of the errors he hit are actually in the tree at the moment, the cleanup is just to make the errors slightly clearer in case we accidentally introduce new ones.
With a reworded commit message to better explain the above:
