Subject: [PATCH] tpm: Do not print an error message when doing TPM auto startup
Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2016 11:31:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161121183109.GA18088@obsidianresearch.com> (raw)
This is a regression when this code was reworked and made the error
print unconditional. The original code deliberately suppressed printing
of the first error message so it could quietly sense
TPM_ERR_INVALID_POSTINIT.
Fixes: a502feb67b47 ("tpm: Clean up reading of timeout and duration capabilities")
Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com>
