It would probably be useful to other parts of QEMU if you defined this 
function as recv_all() and put it in qemu-char.c (to correspond with 
send_all()).

tpm_passthrough_do_startup_tpm() always returns zero, so 
had_startup_error will never be set to true.

Can a T/OS never be established with the passthrough backend?

> +Further, if TPM ownership is released from within a VM then the host's TPM
> +will get disabled and deactivated. To enable and activate the
> +TPM again afterwards, the host has to be rebooted and the user is
> +required to enter the firmware's menu to enable and activate the TPM.
