Yes, client->dev's drvdata (aka chip->dev.parent) should point to the
chip. In an ideal world the TPM core will never touch this, but we are
not quite there yet, sysfs in particular is broken.

chip->dev's drvdata could/should point to the driver's priv, that
would make sense. With Jarkko's tree today that is OK.

But Stefan's vtpm driver adds a use:

 https://github.com/stefanberger/linux/commit/3ab4e3aabf50137068e2807910e5f867668b4e23

Which is an ugly hacky thing..

So, if you are planning a tpm_get_drvdata or whatever then we should
probably patch vtpm to put priv back in or patch vtpm to not need that
hack.
