As David already requested a next version of the patchset, I will do it
in v9.

If you ask me, no. NXP sells more or less two versions of this chip:
pn532 and pn533. The pn532 is the version with i2c and uart interface,
the pn533 only has an usb interface. So I would say "nxp,pn533-i2c" was
wrong and I dropped it.

Well, the chip has it (as said above, it is the same as the i2c chip)
but it is not an use case for me. At the moment I have no hardware to
test this with. So I did not implement it in the uart phy driver.
Solution is: If the chip is in sleep mode, send it some special
"wake-up" paket over uard and wait until it actually wakes up.

Ok.
