Fix the following crash on kexec by checking chip->ops for a NULL pointer
in tpm_chip_start() and returning an error code if this is the case.

BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on read at 0x00000060

The referenced patch below introduced a function to shut down the VIO bus.
The bus shutdown now calls tpm_del_char_device (via tpm_chip_unregister)
after a call to tpm_class_shutdown, which already set chip->ops to NULL.
The crash occurrs when tpm_del_char_device calls tpm_chip_start with the
chip->ops NULL pointer.

With the patch applied, kexec with vTPM works as expected.

It was unclear to me at first, but IIUC the problem is the ibmvtpm device
receives two shutdown calls, the first is a class shutdown call for TPM devices,
followed by a bus shutdown call for VIO devices.

It appears that the class shutdown routines are meant to be a pre-shutdown
routine as they are defined as class->shutdown_pre(), and it is clearly allowed
to call class->shutdown_pre() followed by one of but not both of the following
bus->shutdown() or driver->shutdown(). Even tpm_class_shutdown() mentions in the
function comment that bus/device shutdown to follow.

This patch left implementing each vio driver shutdown routine as an exercise for
the respective maintainers, and instead just big hammers anything that doesn't
have a shutdown routine by calling the driver->remove().

If tpm_class_shutdown() quiecses ibmvtpm enough implementing a no-op
ibmvtpm->shutdown() with a comment saying so suffices.

However, the generic TPM code is still introducing a bug that an attempt to call
tpm_chip_unregister() after tpm_class_shutdown() will crash as mentioned above.

I wonder if a better fix would to have tpm_del_char_device() check for valid
chip->ops and call tpm_class_shutdown() when the ops are still valid. Calling
tpm_class_shutdown() allows for some code deduplication in tpm_del_char_device().

I suppose you are referring to this here:

/**
  * tpm_class_shutdown() - prepare the TPM device for loss of power.
  * @dev: device to which the chip is associated.
  *
  * Issues a TPM2_Shutdown command prior to loss of power, as required 
by the
  * TPM 2.0 spec. Then, calls bus- and device- specific shutdown code.
  *
  * Return: always 0 (i.e. success)
  */

I think this comment still refers to the ancient code here:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.4.295/source/drivers/char/tpm/tpm-chip.c#L161

     if (dev->bus && dev->bus->shutdown)
         dev->bus->shutdown(dev);
     else if (dev->driver && dev->driver->shutdown)
         dev->driver->shutdown(dev);

Right, but that was because device_shutdown didn't use to call bus or driver
shutdown routines if class->shutdown was defined. TPM is the class of devices
that implements class->shutdown and that code above was removed and
device_shutdown was made to call class and either bus/driver shutdown as well.

class shutdown hook is set")

Right, this is exactly what I was proposing in my last comment previously.

Seeing as it is in TPM generic code and I'm not expert it would be nice if we
got some input from Jarkko, or someone else with more experience in this area to
make sure we aren't missing some other interaction. Otherwise, works for me.

I still think code de-duplication is a good thing. Maybe combine the two
approaches. Call tpm_class_shutdown from tpm_del_char_device and add a chip->ops
check in tpm_class_shutdown to ensure we only do the shutdown when chip->ops is
valid.

This triggers to all drivers, not just tpm_ibmvtpm, i.e. the fix has
side-effects.

What are those side-effects?

I am asking because if one entered tpm_chip_start() with chip->ops = 
NULL it would crash any system. So now the side-effect is that one can 
call this function without crashing the system but gets an -EINVAL back.

Another alternative that prevents these crashes is this change here 
including code deduplication:

It does change behaviour for all drivers, which is not acceptable for a
bug fix.
