The function tpm_tis_request_locality() is expected to return the locality value that was requested, or a negative error code upon failure. If it is called while locality_count of struct tis_data is non-zero, no actual locality request will be sent. Because the ret variable is initially set to 0, the locality_count will still get increased, and the function will return 0. For a caller, this would indicate that locality 0 was successfully requested and not the state changes just mentioned. Additionally, the function __tpm_tis_request_locality() provides inconsistent error codes. It will provide either a failed IO write or a -1 should it have timed out waiting for locality request to succeed. This commit changes __tpm_tis_request_locality() to return valid negative error codes to reflect the reason it fails. It then adjusts the return value check in tpm_tis_request_locality() to check for a non-negative return value before incrementing locality_cout. In addition, the initial value of the ret value is set to a negative error to ensure the check does not pass if __tpm_tis_request_locality() is not called. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
