Hi

There is a leak of *arg in 
dev/usb/if_athn_usb.c:athn_usb_newauth() line 1263
since Rev. 1.49
Because athn_usb_do_async() memcpy's the argument anyway.

Found with llvm/scan-build.

Instead of adding free(arg) I opted to make this function
more like the other ones which call athn_usb_do_async.

Only compile tested... looking for tests.

Greetings Ben
