7.4.8.2 Communication from Slave to Master (PN544 to Host)
The PN544 will set to high the IRQ line. The host shall now apply the clock and toggle
NSS as long as no data is pending any more. This can be observed by either processing
the first byte which contains the length information or by looking at the IRQ line which
goes back to low level again once the buffer is emptied.
