I'm new to this area of the kernel, but I'm not getting these lines:
> + rc = tpm_transmit_cmd(chip, NULL, buf.data, PAGE_SIZE, 0, 0, NULL);
> + tpm_buf_destroy(&buf);
> if (rc < 0)
Why is this if() check not directly after the tpm_transmit_cmd() call
that sets rc? Is it correct you want to destroy buf regardless of the
tpm_transmit_cmd() outcome?

> + out = (struct tpm_output_header *)buf.data;
So buf has been destroyed, buf.data sill has something valid to assign
to out?

> chip->flags |= TPM_CHIP_FLAG_TPM2;

Thanks,
