[PATCH v3 2/2] tpm: in tpm2_del_space check if ops pointer is still valid

From: Lino Sanfilippo
Date: Thu Feb 04 2021 - 18:53:20 EST


From: Lino Sanfilippo <l.sanfilippo@xxxxxxxxxx>

In tpm2_del_space() chip->ops is used for flushing the sessions. However
this function may be called after tpm_chip_unregister() which sets
the chip->ops pointer to NULL.
Avoid a possible NULL pointer dereference by checking if chip->ops is still
valid before accessing it.

Fixes: a3fbfae82b4c ("tpm: take TPM chip power gating out of tpm_transmit()")
