There is an implementation detail to iron out:

Doing

	obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TIS_SPI) += tpm_tis_spi.o cr50_spi.o

as in this patch results in it failing to build as a module, due to them
getting compiled to separate modules, yt sharing code. So I guess doing

	obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TIS_SPI) += tpm_tis_spi.o
	obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TIS_SPI_CR50) += cr50_spi.o

will result in the same error, hence the question of doing something like

	obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TIS_SPI) += tpm_tis_spi_mod.o
	tpm_tis_spi_mod-y := tpm_tis_spi.o
	tpm_tis_spi_mod-$(CONFIG_TCG_TIS_SPI_CR50) += cr50_spi.o

so that sources get compiled and the module getting build from the result.
