[PATCH] NFC: nci: fix memory leak

From: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com>
Date: 2015-11-16 12:57:30

In case of invalid number_destination_params we were returning error but
we missed releasing cmd. Lets check for the number of parameter before
allocating memory so that we don't have a memory leak.
