4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko.sakkinen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 72fd50e14e46dc0edf360631bdece87c2f066a97 upstream. The req_canceled() callback is used by tpm_transmit() periodically to check whether the request has been canceled while it is receiving a response from the TPM. The TPM_CRB_CTRL_CANCEL register was cleared already in the crb_cancel callback, which has two consequences: * Cancel might not happen. * req_canceled() always returns zero. A better place to clear the register is when starting to send a new command. The behavior of TPM_CRB_CTRL_CANCEL is described in the section 5.5.3.6 of the PTP specification.
