I'm not sure if this is expected approach adding new drivers. You duplicates most of pn533 code which is not good. Also, note that pn533 and pn532 are pretty the same chips (with small differences) and it would be quite natural to support both with one driver. Pn533 already reads chip version on init, so at this point you already know with which chip you are dealing with. I suggest to separate transport layer from the core in pn533 and add support for uart and usb separately. This is exactly what I've planned while changing pn533 to support acr122 device.
