Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tpm: Implement public tpm_put_chip() to release reference to chip
Date:   Tue, 26 Jun 2018 15:30:39 -0400
In-Reply-To: <20180626193040.2509798-1-stefanb@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
References: <20180626193040.2509798-1-stefanb@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Message-Id: <20180626193040.2509798-2-stefanb@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Some subsystems that got a hold of a TPM chip through tpm_default_chip()
need a way to release the reference to the TPM chip when they shut down.
The tpm_put_chip() function enables this.
