Subject: nfc: st-nci: Free data with irrelevant NDLC PCB_SYNC value

From: Christophe Ricard <christophe.ricard@gmail.com>

commit 8b706884eac958ec16518315053f77e052627084 upstream.

PCB_SYNC different than PCB_TYPE_SUPERVISOR or PCB_TYPE_DATAFRAME
should be discarded.

Irrelevant data may be forwarded up to the ndlc state machine by
phys like spi to prevent missing potential data during "write"
transactions.
