It looks like this might not solve all cases. I'm having Lenovo test
another build to make sure I gave them the right code, but they reported
with the L490 that the system hangs right when it is initializing
tpm_tis. I'm working on getting a build on the T490s I have to try there
as well. With the Intel system it spits out that it detects the
interrupt storm, and continues on its way.
