Inline patches are preferred so that reviewers can comment on them
more easily.

What mail client are you using?
[Agarwal, Lomesh] I am using MS Outlook. Earlier you said inline patches
have problem because of mail client. That's why I sent it as attachment.

The patch has trailing CRs on each line ("DOS mode").

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just verifying:  this TPM device has interrupts per locality?

+       /* check if interrupt is meant for this locality */
+       if (check_locality(chip, locality) < 0)
+               return IRQ_NONE;

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Agarwal, Lomesh] TPM device has only one interrupt. so on receiving
interrupt driver has to make sure that its meant for its locality.

init_tis() still seems to have some problems.

 static int __init init_tis(void)
 {
+#define DEVNAME_SIZE 10
+
        int rc;
 
+       if ((locality < 0) || (locality > 4))
+               return PTR_ERR(pdev);

pdev hasn't been set (so it's NULL).

+               pdev = platform_device_register_simple(devname, -1,
NULL, 0);
+               if (IS_ERR(pdev))
                        return PTR_ERR(pdev);

Error path above needs to call driver_unregister().
[Agarwal, Lomesh] attached is the new patch.
