Commit 933bfc5ad213 introduced the use of a locality counter to control when
locality request was actually sent to the TPM. This locality counter created a
hard enforcement that the TPM had no active locality at the time of the driver
initialization. The reality is that this may not always be the case coupled
with the fact that the commit indiscriminately decremented the counter created
the condition for integer underflow of the counter. The underflow was triggered
by the first pair of request/relinquish calls made in tpm_tis_init_core and all
subsequent calls to request/relinquished calls would have the counter flipping
between the underflow value and 0. The result is that it appeared all calls to
request/relinquish were successful, but they were not. The end result is that
the locality that was active when the driver loaded would always remain active,
to include after the driver shutdown. This creates a significant issue when
using Intel TXT and Locality 2 is active at boot. After the GETSEC[SEXIT]
instruction is called, the PCH will close access to Locality 2 MMIO address
space, leaving the TPM locked in Locality 2 with no means to relinquish the
locality until system reset.
The commit seeks to address this situation through three changes. The first is
to walk the localities during initialization and close any open localities to
ensure the TPM is in the assumed state. Next is to put guards around the
counter and the requested locality to ensure they remain within valid values.
The last change is to make the request locality functions be consistent in
their return values. The functions will either return the locality requested if
successful or a negative error code.

Could you split this up into multiple patches then, so that they can be
discussed separately?

This line seems to be the most important change, that fixes the
locality_count handling for localities != 0. It could already be
sufficient to fix your original problem. I'm not sure all the other
changes are really necessary.

This is somewhat useless comment.
E.g. this would be way more useful:
/*
* Intel TXT starts with locality 2 active. Therefore,
* localities cannot be assumed to be closed on startup.

I have to agree with you ttly.
Yeah also the text above is not exactly in the ballpark.
I did not understand what I read. I had to read the code change instead
to get an idea. A huge pile of text does not equal to stronger story.
Like for any essay, scientific paper or a kernel message one should do
also few edit rounds. The commit message is more important than the code
change itself in bug fixes...
There is trigger (TXT) and solution. A great commit message should have
motivation and implementation parts and somewhat concise story where
things lead to another. It should essentially make *any* reader who
knows the basics of kernel code base convinced, not confused. This is
at leat a good aim even tho sometimes unreachable.

It do not believe this fully address the issue. It does stop the
underflow but locality still is not being properly tracked.

The total number of scenarios described was exactly zero meaning for us
that a situation does not exist with our current pool of knowledge :-)
I wonder what sort of scenario requires all those changes applied at
once in order to get fixed.

Why do we want to return -EBUSY now? This does not seem to have anything to do with the
issue you are trying to solve.

How can it happen that l > TPM_MAX_LOCALITY?

wait_startup() already needs a locality, so this has to be done before that function.
Furthermore you can simply use __tpm_tis_relinquish_locality() as there
is not concurrency involved at this point.
With that you can IMHO spare everything else and the complete fix can be broken down to:
for (i = 0; i <= MAX_LOCALITY; i++)
__tpm_tis_relinquish_locality(priv, i);
