poplar_nonfc is a variant of poplar device tree with NFC disabled in its device tree
by disabling kernel module execution
We need this because many of XZ1 users have SOV36 Japanese variant instead of G8341,
that has a different NFC chip and would just need a different kernel driver, but
thanks to @ itsbytebites we discovered that our phones are missing the entire NFC
antenna. It was removed from a chinese seller that claims to ship G8341 devices.
Having NFC kernel module loaded makes the device to not enter deep sleep mode, as well
as log spam with errors regarding it
