Subject: [PATCH 2/4] tpm: fix reference counting for struct tpm_chip
From: Lino Sanfilippo <l.sanfilippo@...bus.com>
Commit 8979b02aaf1d ("tpm: Fix reference count to main device") tried to
fix a reference count issue which prevented the tpm_chip structure from
being freed in case that no TPM2 was used. The fix was to only get an extra
reference for chip->dev in case of TPM2 which is indicated by the
TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2 flag.
Unfortunately this flag is never set, and thus the extra reference is not
taken even in the TPM2 case. This results in a refcount underflow in case
that the device file /dev/tpmrm* is used to write data after the tpm_chip
has been unregistered (e.g if the /dev/tpmrm* file has been opened before
and not yet closed at the time the chip was unregistered.)
Also the error path (label "out") in tpm_chip_alloc() results in such an
underflow, since the dev reference is put twice (one time directly and the
second time by the call of tpm_devs_release() due to the put of
chip->devs).
Fix the described issues by taking the extra reference unconditionally and
installing an additional resource management action handler which puts
chip->devs. Releasing chip->devs eventually results in the call of
tpm_devs_release() which then releases the extra reference to chip->dev.
Since we now actually take that extra reference, adjust users of
tpm_chip_alloc() like VTPM proxy and FTPM tee to release it indirectly by
putting the reference of chip->devs.
