Makes perfect sense to the level that I wonder if this should have a
fixes tag and/or needs to be backported to the stable kernels?

I'd just use 'ptr' for readability sake.

This is a really great catch!

I'm a bit late of my PR a bit because of SGX upstreaming madness
(sending v39 soon). If you can answer to my question above, I can do
that nitpick change to patch and get it to my v5.10 PR.

PS. Just so that you know, once I've applied it, it will be available
here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jarkko/linux-tpmdd.git

I'll include MAINTAINERS update to that PR.
