Matthew,

Thanks for coming up with a clean way to integrate this iTPM support!

Unfortunately, automagically loading tpm_tis results in a suspend
regression on my X200:

(hand-transcribed, sorry for any typos)

[   16.759044] tpm_tis 00:0a: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x1020, rev-id 6)
[ 7537.636134] PM: Entering mem sleep
[ 7537.636221] Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug)
[ 7537.636668] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Synchronizing SCSI cache
[ 7537.658111] tpm_tis 00:0a: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error -5
[ 7537.658119] legacy_suspend(): pnp_bus_suspend+0x0/0x6a returns -5
[ 7537.658122] PM: Device 00:0a failed to suspend: error -5
[ 7537.681940] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Stopping disk
[ 7538.564024] PM: Some devices failed to suspend

I suspect that it would have failed previously if I'd forced the module
to load, but since tpm_tis now loads automatically as of 2.6.37-rc1, I
have to "rmmod tpm_tis" for suspend to work.
