4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Jarkko Sakkinen <[email protected]> commit 8e0ee3c9faed7ca68807ea45141775856c438ac0 upstream. If the initialization fails before tpm_chip_register(), put_device() will be not called, which causes release callback not to be called. This patch fixes the issue by adding put_device() to devres list of the parent device.
