Fair enough, I am ok with exporting those symbols. BTW after looking at your setup routine, I think this is wrong: + /* Load firmware from disk */ + r = fdp_nci_request_firmware(ndev); + if (r) + goto error; You should be able to boot your NFC chipset without a local patch. If there is one, then you can try patching your device, but otherwise we should continue with the exisiting one.
