    NFC: NCI: nci_spi_recv_frame() now returns (not forward) the read frame · 22d4aae5

    Previously, nci_spi_recv_frame() would directly transmit incoming frames
    to the NCI Core. However, it turns out that some NFC NCI Chips will add
    additional proprietary headers that must be handled/removed before NCI
    Core gets a chance to handle the frame. With this modification, the chip
    phy or driver are now responsible to transmit incoming frames to NCI
    Core after proper treatment, and NCI SPI becomes a driver helper instead
    of sitting between the NFC driver and NCI Core.
    
    As a general rule in NFC, *_recv_frame() APIs are used to deliver an
    incoming frame to an upper layer. To better suit the actual purpose of
    nci_spi_recv_frame(), and go along with its nci_spi_send()
    counterpart, the function is renamed to nci_spi_read()
    
    The skb is returned as the function result
