I did. But you are answering to my v1 patch. The v3 can be found here with the
following subject "[PATCH v3] tpm: return a TPM_RC_COMMAND_CODE response if
command is not implemented"
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10084305/
Probably you got confused because I posted 2 RFCs before posting a proper PATCH
and then PATCHv3 and v3.

Thanks! As mentioned this is v1, but I guess it also applies to v3 since the
only differences are the removal of the unused defines and the naming change
we discussed.
