This would be ideal,  but that's happen more than often that the fix cannot be applied w/o changes to older kernels.
I can send that patch, are you able to test it? Frankly nobody complained about it so I'm not sure what to do.

That's correct

That's not correct,   I missed that.  Either someone can test the TPM 2.0 device  or I need to revert it for nuvoton, in the next patch.
