According to the bug report at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62678,
the trusted module is a dependency of the ecryptfs module. We should
load the trusted module even if the TPM is inactive or deactivated.
Given that commit 782779b60faa ("tpm: Actually fail on TPM errors during
"get random"") changes the return code of tpm_get_random(), the patch
should be modified to ignore the -EIO error. I will send a new version.
Do you have information where this dependency comes from?
ecryptfs retrieves the encryption key from encrypted keys (see
ecryptfs_get_encrypted_key()).
