The attached backported patch should apply to 4.4-stable tree. It will also apply to 4.9-stable. It did not apply originally as patch was looking for the splitted files. The split was done by: ecb38e2f521b ("tpm: split out tpm-dev.c into tpm-dev.c and tpm-common-dev.c") -- Regards Sudip

Fixed this by taking the priv->buffer_mutex early in the function. Also converted the priv->data_pending from atomic to a regular size_t type. There is no need for it to be atomic since it is only touched under the protection of the priv->buffer_mutex.
