auxdisplay: lcd2s: Use proper API to free the instance of charlcd object
While it might work, the current approach is fragile in a few ways: - whenever members in the structure are shuffled, the pointer will be wrong - the resource freeing may include more than covered by kfree() Fix this by using charlcd_free() call instead of kfree().
