[ Upstream commit a71a29f50de1ef97ab55c151a1598eb12dde379d ]
I2C communication errors (-EREMOTEIO) during the IRQ handler of nxp-nci
result in a NULL pointer dereference at the moment:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI
CPU: 1 PID: 355 Comm: irq/137-nxp-nci Not tainted 5.4.0-rc6 #1
RIP: 0010:skb_queue_tail+0x25/0x50
Call Trace:
nci_recv_frame+0x36/0x90 [nci]

Afterward the kernel must be rebooted to work properly again.
This happens because it attempts to call nci_recv_frame() with skb == NULL.
However, unlike nxp_nci_fw_recv_frame(), nci_recv_frame() does not have any
NULL checks for skb, causing the NULL pointer dereference.
Change the code to call only nxp_nci_fw_recv_frame() in case of an error.
Make sure to log it so it is obvious that a communication error occurred.
The error above then becomes:
nxp-nci_i2c i2c-NXP1001:00: NFC: Read failed with error -121
nci: __nci_request: wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout failed 0
nxp-nci_i2c i2c-NXP1001:00: NFC: Read failed with error -121
