avoid module dependency problems.
However, trusted module initialization can still fail if the TPM is
inactive or deactivated. This patch ignores tpm_get_random() errors in
init_digests() and returns -EFAULT in pcrlock() if the TPM didn't return
random data.

The code changes look correct to me.

For whoever takes this patch through their tree, I think that adding the
following Fixes tag would be useful (as well as cc'ing stable):
Fixes: 240730437deb ("KEYS: trusted: explicitly use tpm_chip
structure...")
I think it is also worth leaving a short note, in the commit message,
for backporters that commit 782779b60faa ("tpm: Actually fail on TPM
errors during "get random"") should be included with any backports of
this patch.
Right, thanks. I wait for Jarkko's comments and I add both the Fixes tag
and the short note in the next version of the patch.
Uhm, I was thinking that maybe it is not necessary to mention commit
782779b60faa. This patch would still return 0 even if that commit is not
backported (TPM_ERR_DISABLED < TPM_MAX_DIGEST_SIZE).
