I have a patch to kill it, but it causes odd regressions with the
tpm driver according to the kernel test. As I have grand plans that
build on the block ѕide of this series for 5.11, I plan to defer the
chardev side and address it for 5.12.
Ok, sounds good.
Wow, I just looked at the tpm code, and it is, um, "interesting" in how
it thinks device lifespans work. Nothing like having 4 different
structures with different lifespans embedded within a single structure.
Good thing that no one can dynamically remove a TPM device during
"normal" operation.
