 file descriptor

s/desstructor/destructor/

I'd change it to "selftest: tpm2: Add Client.__del__() to close /dev/tpm* handle"

I don't recall seeing this. Does this happen on every test case?

Should better describe what is going on, e.g.

"
The following output can bee seen when the test is executed:

  test_flush_context (tpm2_tests.SpaceTest) ... \
    /usr/lib64/python3.6/unittest/case.py:605: ResourceWarning: \
    unclosed file <_io.FileIO name='/dev/tpmrm0' mode='rb+' closefd=True>

An instance of Client does not implicitly close /dev/tpm* handle, once it
gets destroyed. Close the file handle in the class destructor
Client.__del__().
