Subject: [PATCH v2 6/6] tpm: flush the auth session only when /dev/tpm0 is open

Instead of flushing and reloading the auth session for every single
transaction, keep the session open unless /dev/tpm0 is open. In practice
this means applying TPM2_SA_CONTINUE_SESSION to the session attributes.
Flush the session always when /dev/tpm0 is written.
