Instead of flushing and reloading the null key for every single auth session, flush it only when:

1. User space needs to access /dev/tpm{rm}0.
2. When going to sleep.
3. When unregistering the chip.

This removes the need to load and swap the null key between TPM and regular memory per transaction, when the user space is not using the chip.

If chip->null_key is already 0, the above function will not do anything good, but you could avoid this whole block then by checking for 0 before tpm_try_get_ops().

Worth using an inline on this repeating pattern? Up to you.

True!

I agree with all of your remarks. I'll send one more round because there is enough changes. Thank you.
