There is a problem in the initialisation and setup of the pn533: It
registers with nfc too early. It could happen, that it finished
registering with nfc and someone starts using it. But setup of the pn533
is not yet finished. Bad or at least unintended things could happen.
So I split out nfc registering (and unregistering) to seperate functions
that have to be called late in probe then.
i2c requires a bit more love: i2c requests an irq in it's probe
function. 'Commit 32ecc75ded ("NFC: pn533: change order operations in
dev registation")' shows, this can not happen too early. An irq can be
served before structs are fully initialized. The way chosen to prevent
this is to request the irq after nfc_alloc_device initialized the
structs, but before nfc_register_device. So there is now this
pn532_i2c_nfc_alloc function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
