[PATCH v3 0/8] backports: add NFC subsystem

[Thierry Escande]

This adds support for NFC core and drivers backport down to v3.1. Prior kernel
versions won't support it as is since PF_NFC net proto as been introduced in
v3.1 and sock_register kernel api in prior kernels will fail for PF_NFC.

I think using this makes sense for testing *your* development work but
for integration upstream I'd prefer to see a full ckmake test. We can
get you access to the build box to help with this, or Johannes can
also run it prior to integration.
