Re: BUG in i2c_detach_client

Mystery solved.

ERROR3:
i2c_detach_client(data->lm75[1]); <-- HERE
i2c_detach_client(data->lm75[0]);
kfree(data->lm75[1]);
kfree(data->lm75[0]);

The missing i2c_detach_client call meant that data->lm75[1] was still on
the list of i2c devices when it was freed. This was corrupting the list.
The ERROR3 path now works on my kernel.

Thanks for your help.
