I just checked out your commit from github.

Here's a part of the review:

Smatch still complains a bit, sparse is fine.:

Please check.

(maybe also fix the checkpatch -strict stuff as well? Would be nice ;)

drivers/char/tpm/tpm_stm_st33_i2c.h 
- Does the driver really need a seperate headerfile in drivers/char/tpm/ ? for me it seems everything can be included into the c-file.

is unused - please remove.

Please remove, it's unused and if you really need it use the one from tpm.h

include/linux/i2c/tpm_stm_st33_i2c.h
I'm not sure if this is needed publicly? Or does only your driver need this?

Telling from the name I have no idea what this device is.

Why the leading zeros? please remove.

Please convert resume/suspend  to .driver.pm 

It's pretty easy.
See this post  for details
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=29516784
Rafael did spent quite a lot of effort to convert almost every driver back then, so we should 'fix' new ones.

Hooray for oneliners ;)
+ module_i2c_driver(tpm_st33_i2c_driver);

Keep on hacking ;)
