Most platforms should have firmware initialize the TPM 2 these days. Therefore, a selftest should work and in case it doesn't work you fall back to the tpm2_startup below and if you get an error message in the log you at least know that you firmware is not up-to-date.

  	rc = tpm2_do_selftest(chip);
  	if (rc && rc != TPM2_RC_INITIALIZE)
  		goto out;
if (rc == TPM2_RC_INITIALIZE) {
-		rc = tpm2_startup(chip);
-		if (rc)
-			goto out;

  		rc = tpm2_do_selftest(chip);
  		if (rc)
  			goto out;
