Well, the fuction has output header already declared. What I could do
as a prequel commit is to take these:

struct tpm_input_header {
	__be16	tag;
	__be32	length;
	__be32	ordinal;
} __packed;

struct tpm_output_header {
	__be16	tag;
	__be32	length;
	__be32	return_code;
} __packed;

and replace them with this:

struct tpm_header {
	__be16	tag;
	__be32	length;
	union {
		__be32 ordinal;
		__be32 return_code;
	};
} __packed;
