I can confirm this bug:

insmod /usr/lib/modules/5.10.0+/extra/tpm.ko ; insmod 
/usr/lib/modules/5.10.0+/extra/tpm_vtpm_proxy.ko

swtpm chardev --vtpm-proxy --tpm2 --tpmstate dir=./ &

exec 100<>/dev/tpmrm0

kill -9 <swtpm pid>

rmmod tpm_vtpm_proxy

echo -en '\x80\x01\x00\x00\x00\x0c\x00\x00\x01\x44\x00\x00' >&100

With this patch applied this error here is gone. Just have make sure to 
replace tpm.ko and tpm_vtpm_proxy.ko, not just the latter.

So my Tested-By is good for both patches.
