Ok, I will change that.

Yes, you are right, there could be a problem if an irq gets served
before the driver is registered to the nfc subsystem.
Well, but the purpose of this patch is exactly that: Prevent use of nfc
subsystem before the chip is fully initialized.
To address this, I would not change the part above, but move the
request_threaded_irq to the very bottom in pn533_i2c_probe, after the
call to pn53x_register_nfc. So it is not possible to use nfc before the
chip is initialized and irqs don't get served before the driver is
registered to nfc subsystem.
Thank you for this!
I will include this in v10 of the patchset.
