What's the status of this patch now? It's needed in linux-5.0.y as TPM
2.0 support is currently broken with those stable kernels without this

part of a PR.

It appears that the final version of the patch that was merged to
Linus's tree [1] does not include the "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" tag.
If I understand correctly, this means that the patch will not be
automatically included in the -stable tree without further action. Is
there a specific reason not to apply this patch to 5.0.x, or did the tag
just get lost in the merge process?
Good catch; I see that Jarkko had the same comment on v3 but v4 ended up
being without the -stable tag without any explanation. I've queued this
for 5.0, it doesn't seem relevant for older branches.
