No problem! We unblocked our development on this issue by just disabling
the TPM I2C driver in our kernel config, so there's no particular rush
for us.

In fact, if Joel wants to just avoid figuring this out and merge the
5.19 kernel, that would probably be fine. But, that might still break
the machines he referenced, that are using an I2C TPM interface.

I see, thanks for explaining the context.

Oh that would be great, thanks.
