[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 034/218] tpm: fix the cleanup of struct tpm_chip

From: Kamal Mostafa <hidden>
Date: 2016-03-31 21:19:41
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tpm device driver · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Peter Huewe, Jarkko Sakkinen

4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Jarkko Sakkinen <redacted>

commit 8e0ee3c9faed7ca68807ea45141775856c438ac0 upstream.

If the initialization fails before tpm_chip_register(), put_device()
will be not called, which causes release callback not to be called.
This patch fixes the issue by adding put_device() to devres list of
the parent device.

Fixes: 313d21eeab ("tpm: device class for tpm")
