From: Jaret Cantu <jaret.cantu@timesys.com> Repeated polling attempts cause a NULL dereference error to occur. This is because the state of the trf7970a is currently reading but another request has been made to send a command before it has finished. The solution is to properly kill the waiting reading (workqueue) before failing on the send. --- drivers/nfc/trf7970a.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+)
