Jarkko Sakkinen 877c57d0d0 tpm_crb: request and relinquish locality 0
This commit adds support for requesting and relinquishing locality 0 in
tpm_crb for the course of command transmission.

In order to achieve this, two new callbacks are added to struct
tpm_class_ops:

- request_locality
- relinquish_locality

With CRB interface you first set either requestAccess or relinquish bit
from TPM_LOC_CTRL_x register and then wait for locAssigned and
tpmRegValidSts bits to be set in the TPM_LOC_STATE_x register.

The reason why were are doing this is to make sure that the driver
will work properly with Intel TXT that uses locality 2. There's no
explicit guarantee that it would relinquish this locality. In more
general sense this commit enables tpm_crb to be a well behaving
citizen in a multi locality environment.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
