The RFID interface is not accessible using the CCID protocol. Omnikey has a proprietary/undocumented protocol to use this interface. You can't use the ifdokrfid.so driver since Omnikey only provides a binary for i386 (and amd64) but not for ARM. It is not/never a good idea to use non-free software. If you want to use a RFID reader you can select one that is supported by my CCID driver. Have a look at the page [1] and select the reader you prefer. Search for "contactless" in the page. Maybe some contactless readers can also do RFID and not just ISO 14443. According to [2] RFID is part of ISO 14443. You will have to go to each product web page to know if the reader works for you.
