Subject[RESEND][RFC] tpm_tis: broken on TPMs with a static burst count
Date
(Resending as no reply received, this time with CCs to TPM maintainers and
author of the original commit).

Hi all,

Commit 1107d065fdf1 (tpm_tis: Introduce intermediate layer for TPM access)
broke TPM support on ThinkPad X61S (and likely also on other machines which
use TPMs with a static burst count).

It looks like tpm_tis code before this commit had spun on TPM_STS_DATA_AVAIL |
TPM_STS_VALID status bits in the read case and TPM_STS_VALID in the write case
when it got a zero burst count.

I have attached a patch against current code (linux-tpmdd tree) that brings
back this old behavior.
With this patch the TPM works again on X61S.
However, somebody with more TPM experience should comment whether such behavior
was OK or the change brought by commit 1107d065fdf1 was intentional.
