Subject: [PATCH] tpm: remove some recent additions to the authors lists

Removed those additions to the authors lists within last few years
that are not the original authors.

In some ways authors list does not make sense at all because git log is
really the ultimate authors list but it is fine to give yourself a bit
of credit in rare cases if you create a new driver in the subsystem or
something similar.

This commit might seem a bit cosmetic but it is made to make the policy
more sound and speeds up the code review process a tiny bit in the
future.
