Since all other PC vendors have ceased supporting NFC (Intel made it
useless), why bother?

Well at least, I would like to have my laptop working correctly by
supporting the NFC chip. I think it is not a big deal to have the driver
supporting it.

For my information, why Intel made it useless ?

The only high volume use of NFC in a PC would be for Secure Payments and 
Authentication where you use a mobile phone as payment credential holder or 
authenticator.
Intel rejected this idea.  QR has (forever) taken NFC's place.

The QR phenomena is also getting strong in PoS terminal (shop) world since the 
NFC forum haven't realized that 7816 is an obsolete technology.  800 million 
Chinese have much better stuff than the West crippled by dated card level 
protocols.

I dumped the ACPI DSDT table and got the id NXP1001. This one is not
listed in the match table of the nxp-nci driver.

   - is the driver missing for the so called NXP NPC300 ?
   - should the NXP1001 matching string to be added to nxp-nci?
   - is my firmware sending me garbage ?

Thanks in advance for any input
