Nope, and it should not get loaded anyway as I'm using PTT. With PTT you
use tpm_crb. TPM is working just fine.

I can check this when I'm back in Finland. Still in Prague. Tried to
test this with my work laptop (XPS13 with dTPM) now but the USB stick I
have with seems to be broken :-(

This is anyway almost guaranteed to go to 4.16  and I don't want to push
this to 4.15 so there is no rush right now (already sent my PR).
