All of those patches in for-tpm have gone to James.

However, the original series I posted included 5 additional patches
that have received no comment, available on:

https://github.com/jgunthorpe/linux/commits/tpm-devel

Jason Gunthorpe:
      tpm: Pull everything related to /dev/tpmX into tpm-dev.c
      tpm: Pull everything related to sysfs into tpm-sysfs.c
      tpm: Create a tpm_class_ops structure and use it in the drivers
      tpm: Use the ops structure instead of a copy in tpm_vendor_specific
      tpm: Make tpm-dev allocate a per-file structure

These would have been posted as patch numbers 8 through 13 in the
original series.

I think what happened is at this point in the series module compile
broke. That is fixed now in the for-james pull, so the rest of the
series should be looked at.

Peter's checkpatch clean up will create some minor conflicts, so I
should probably resend the lot after rebasing it.
