Yes, we should ultimately try and get to there.. Someday the
tpm_chip_find_get() will need to become namespace aware.

But this patch is along the right path, eliminating the chip_num is
the right thing to do..

Sequences like this are sketchy.

It should be

struct tpm_chip *tpm;

tpm = tpm_chip_find_get()
tpm2 = tpm_is_tpm2(tpm);

[..]

if (tpm2)
     ret = tpm_unseal_trusted(tpm, payload, options);

[..]

tpm_put_chip(tpm);

As hot plug could alter the 'tpm' between the two tpm calls.
