Sure, I just thought that it was safer to have an explicit "kfree" in the
code, as it would be clear that the c2a pointer shouldn't be used after this.
But setting the pointer to NULL after calling i2c_atr_destroy_c2a() would
essentially achieve the same thing, so I'll be going with your suggestion.

I don't have the hardware to actually reproduce this but I'll see if I can
find out what the problem is by reading the code.
