Remove the last sentence and replace with this paragraph:

"Address this by ensuring all the localities are closed in the beginning
of tpm_tis_core_init(). There are environments, like Intel TXT, which
may leave a locality open. Close all localities to start from a known
state."

BTW, why we should motivated to take this patch anyway?

Since the patch is not marked as a bug fix the commit message must pitch
why it is important to care.

Is there a dependency to 1/3?
