Make the changes necessary to detach TPM space code and TPM activation
code out of the tpm_transmit() flow because of both of these can cause
nested tpm_transmit() calls. The nesteds calls make the whole flow hard
to maintain, and thus, it is better to just fix things now before this
turns into a bigger mess.

v10:
* Use void pointers to avoid unnecessary casts in functions paramaters
  where it makes sense.

v9:
* Fixed again tpm_try_get_ops().
* Added missing reviewed-by's.

v8:
* Re-add the check for ret < 0 after calling tpm_try_transmit() that
  was dropped by mistake while moving code.
* Fix error fallback for tpm_try_get_ops() when tpm_chip_start()
  fails.

v7:
*  Reorganize series so that more trivial and self-contained changes are
   in the head.

v6:
* When tpm_validate_commmand() was moved to tpm2-space.c, the struct for
  the TPM header was incorrectly declared as struct tpm_input_header.
* Fix return value in tpm_validate_command().

v5:
* Add the missing rev's from Stefan Berger.

v4:
* Return 0 from pcrs_show() when tpm1_pcr_read() fails.
* Fix error handling flow in tpm_try_transmit().
* Replace struct tpm_input_header and struct tpm_output_header with
  struct tpm_header.

v3:
* Encapsulate power gating code to tpm_chip_start() and tpm_chip_stop().
* Move TPM power gating code and locking to tpm_try_get_ops() and
  tpm_put_ops().
* Call power gating code directly in tpm_chip_register() and
  tpm2_del_space().

v2:
* Print tpm2_commit_space() error inside tpm2_commit_space()
* Error code was not printed when recv() callback failed. It is
  fixed in this version.
* Added a patch that removes @space from tpm_transmit().
* Fixed a regression in earlier series. Forgot to amend the change
  from the staging area that renames NESTED to UNLOCKED in tpm2-space.c.

Any reasons not to merge this soon?

I suppose v10 hasn't changed anything signinficat. So, not from my 
perspective. Were you waiting for more Reviewed-by's?

I'm okay, in theory I've cleaned all my concern regarding idle and locality . I'm just want do few more tests on Sunday.

Yeah, for example TPM space touching changes would be good to peer
check with James. I could have easily forgotten some implementation
detail, and it has been very stable piece off code, so don't want
to break it. Guess won't yet try to put this v5.1.

I'm in no rush merging this piece of code, as long as it gets merged
at some point. Thomas, can you take a look at the PTT issue we are
having.

See my discussion with Linus with subject "Getting weird TPM error after
rebasing my tree to security/next-general". You have better knowledge
of the internals so I would really like to hear your feedback on that.
We need to get a fix for that for v5.0.

Yes, looking into in new ICL, had some issues to bring the platform on.  It's really failing (selftest) , we are looking into it.
Will also testing the nesting removal patches.

So the implementation detail I was looking for: internal kernel use of
tpm_transmit_cmd() without tpm_find/try_get_ops() doesn't seem to
exist, so I think this is all safe.  You can add my

Reviewed-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

But I've got to say I can't test this yet because you've made a huge
problem for me in the tpm security patches: they introduce a kernel
space which now becomes somewhat problematic because the space handling
moved into the device common code.  To get both these things to work
together so I can test it, space handling is going to have to come
slightly down from device common code so the kernel can use it.

Thank you. I'll send a new revision soonish.

Yeah, obviously. I'll apply these patches right after the next PR so
you will have a more stable platform to work on after that. Stefan
has tested these, and then there is one full cycle to fix details
if we find issues.
