Summary
tpm_crb: Check ACPI_COMPANION() against NULL during probe
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tpmcrb: Check ACPICOMPANION() against NULL during probe

Every platform driver can be forced to match a device that doesn't match its list of device IDs because of devicematchdriver_override(), so platform drivers that rely on the existence of a device's ACPI companion object need to verify its presence.

Accordingly, add a requisite ACPICOMPANION() check against NULL to the tpmcrb driver.
