So I haven't pulled this, because the subject line (and tag name)
talks about tpmdd, but this is clearly about key handling.

Also, the actual contents seem to be very much an "update", not fixes.
And it doesn't seem to be an actual improvement, in how it now does
things from interrupts. That seems to be going backward rather than
forward.
