When tis core initializes, it assumes all localities are closed. There
are cases when this may not be the case. This commit addresses this by
ensuring all localities are closed before initializing begins.

Remove the last sentence and replace with this paragraph:
"Address this by ensuring all the localities are closed in the beginning
of tpm_tis_core_init(). There are environments, like Intel TXT, which
may leave a locality open. Close all localities to start from a known
state."
BTW, why we should motivated to take this patch anyway?
Since the patch is not marked as a bug fix the commit message must pitch
why it is important to care.

Is there a dependency to 1/3?

okay.

Without this change, in this scenario the driver is unnecessarily
thrashing the TPM with locality requests/relinquishes pairs for which
will never take effect and that the TPM must do state change tracking.
While I am confident that TPM chips are resilient to such abuse, I do
not think it would be good form to knowingly allow such behavior to occur.

As far as I am aware, the TPM driver has always made this assumption, so
I guess it could be written as a bug against the first commit of the
driver. The reality is that it is more the case that the TPM driver has
never completely supported higher localities. While there has been logic
to support localities interface, the driver has always been hard wired
to use locality 0.
Basically, this change makes the TPM driver function correctly when
multiple localities are in use. I can write it up either way, just let
me know.

There is no direct dependency between these patches, but 1 and 2 are
necessary to resolve the issue at hand while 3 corrects the return value
behavior of the locality request function.

This would a factor better motivation part for the commit. I can
buy this argument instead the one right now, thanks :-)
