[Qemu-arm] [PATCH 4/6] tpm: apci: cleanup TCPA table initialization


From: Igor Mammedov
Subject: [Qemu-arm] [PATCH 4/6] tpm: apci: cleanup TCPA table initialization
Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 16:19:06 +0100

At the time build_tpm_tcpa() is called the tcpalog size is
always 0, so log_area_start_address which is actually offset
from the start of ACPI_BUILD_TPMLOG_FILE is always 0.
More over if tcpalog would be not 0 sized at build_tpm_tcpa()
calling time it would make tcpa->log_area_start_address
point to ACPI_BUILD_TPMLOG_FILE+log_area_start_address causing
guest to write beyound ACPI_BUILD_TPMLOG_FILE which
would resulted to memory corruption.

As 'TCPA' is allocated 0 filled, there is not point
to calculate constant 0 log_area_start_address and set
tcpa->log_area_start_address to it since the field should
always point to start of ACPI_BUILD_TPMLOG_FILE.
Make code easier to read dropping misleading at best offset
calculations and making it impossible to silently backfire
if tcpalog size becomes non 0 at the time build_tpm_tcpa()
is called in future.

While at that move tcpalog allocation closer to the code
that defines its size.
