tpm: Disable RNG for all AMD fTPMs
The TPM RNG functionality is not necessary for entropy when the CPU already supports the RDRAND instruction. The TPM RNG functionality was previously disabled on a subset of AMD fTPM series, but reports continue to show problems on some systems causing stutter root caused to TPM RNG functionality. Expand disabling TPM RNG use for all AMD fTPMs whether they have versions that claim to have fixed or not. To accomplish this, move the detection into part of the TPM CRB registration and add a flag indicating that the TPM should opt-out of registration to hwrng. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 6.1.y+ Fixes: b006c439d58d ("hwrng: core - start hwrng kthread also for untrusted sources") Fixes: f1324bbc4011 ("tpm: disable hwrng for fTPM on some AMD designs") Reported-by: daniil.stas@posteo.net Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217719 Reported-by: bitlord0xff@gmail.com Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217212 Signed-off-by: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko@kernel.org>
