The ibmvtpm doesn't have `chip->ops` set, and so trying to check
if it's a defective AMD fTPM doesn't work.
Add an extra check to tpm_amd_is_rng_defective() to ensure the
TPM being checked has `chip->ops`.

Good point, my mistake on that miss.
If Jarkko agrees with the direction of this patch, I think
it can be added while committing.
Thanks!

Since then, a much better patch was suggested.
Please discard this one.

Hmm... sorry Midsummer weekend, which is kind of big thing in Finland,
and also helping toe expose neo-nazi affiliated minister (sounds crazy
but it is literally true) have made me lag a bit with LKML.
I'm presuming that we are going in the direction of Jerry's patch,
right?
