Re: [PATCH 3/5][resubmit][FIXED] TPM: rcu locking

[Rajiv Andrade]

This is a resubmission of rcu locking patch, posted some hours ago, addressing Serge Hallyn's comment.
In the previous patch there was missing the spin_lock/unlock protecting list_add_rcu()
in tpm_register_hardware(). There were also an unnecessary list_del() inside the same function,
that is now being removed.
