* drivers/char/tpm/tpm.c: fix error-path memory leakAndrew Morton2008-10-16

* tpm: work around bug in Broadcom BCM0102 chipsetValdis Kletnieks2008-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch tpm-correct-tpm-timeouts-to-jiffies-conversion reveals a bug in the Broadcom BCM0102 TPM chipset used in the Dell Latitude D820 - although most of the timeouts are returned in usecs as per the spec, one is apparently returned in msecs, which results in a too-small value leading to a timeout when the code treats it as usecs. To prevent a regression, we check for the known too-short value and adjust it to a value that makes things work.

* tpm: correct tpm timeouts to jiffies conversionMarcin Obara2008-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes timeouts conversion to jiffies, by replacing msecs_to_jiffies() calls with usecs_to_jiffies(). According to TCG TPM Specification Version 1.2 Revision 103 (pages 166, 167) TPM timeouts and durations are returned in microseconds (usec) not in miliseconds (msec). This fixes a long hang while loading TPM driver, if TPM chip starts in "Idle" state instead of "Ready" state. Without this patch - 'modprobe' may hang for 30 seconds or more.

* legacy rtc: remove needless/confusing HPET_RTC_IRQ optionDavid Brownell2008-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HPET_RTC_IRQ is no longer needed; HPET_EMULATE_RTC suffices and is more correct. (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11111) Note that when using the legacy RTC driver, platforms don't really do a dynamic switch between HPET and non-HPET modes based on whether HPET hardware actually exists ... only rtc-cmos (using the new RTC framework) currently switches that way. So this reflects bitrot in that legacy code, for x86/ia64: kernels with HPET support configured (e.g. for a clocksource) can't get IRQs from the legacy RTC driver unless they really have HPET hardware. (The obvious workaround is to not use the legacy RTC driver on those platforms when you configure HPET ... unless you know the target really has a HPET.)

It seems that few folk use this userspace interface; it's not very usable given the general lack of HPET IRQ routing. I'm told that the only real point of it any more is to mmap for fast timestamps; IMO that's handled better through the gettimeofday() vsyscall.

So we have to select which irq will be used by these timers. We wait to set the timer's irq until we really open it in order to reduce the chance of conflicting with other device.
